By the distance between "factual innocence" and "actual innocence," John Tennison and Antoine Goff lost their chance to collect from the state Victim Compensation and Government Claims Board Friday. The board refused to grant payment to the two men, who spent 13 years in prison for a San Francisco gang-related murder before their sentences were overturned last year. Elliot Peters, one of Tennison's attorneys, objected to the distinction saying, "Either you were guilty of killing someone, or you weren't."
