Baltimore to pay $48 million to 3 men wrongly imprisoned for 36 years (www.washingtonpost.com)

Three men who spent 36 years in prison for a murder they did not commit — they were wrongly arrested as teenagers by Baltimore police and wrongly convicted by a jury — will receive $48 million from the city after a vote Wednesday by the Baltimore City Board of Estimates....

Poor menstrual hygiene poses health risks for women, including reproductive issues and urinary tract infections.”
