    Man held in O.C. Jail for 6 years, without ever being charged, was wronged, judge said
    The trial court was wrong, wrong, wrong.
    Wrong to put a man who was accused of a crime, but never charged, in jail for six years.
    Wrong to insist that he cough up $360,540 that had vanished in the care of his then-fiance.
    Wrong to keep him locked up even after acknowledging that he was broke — there was “very strong evidence that he was unable to pay $360,540,” said a federal judge’s critical decision.
