Jackson has already been awarded $1million dollars on Thursday as a down payment. The $2 million dollars is computed from the states base rate for wrongful conviction compensation which stands at $40,330 dollars per year in jail, including computation for inflation and tax free awards. Johnson will also  receive money to account for lost wages.
