They're not all guilty
Oregon lawyer Brandon Mayfield was falsely accused of being involved in terrorism
U.S. to pay $2M, apologize for false terror arrest
An Oregon lawyer wrongly arrested and accused of involvement in the 2004 Madrid train bombings has settled a lawsuit against the U.S. government for $2 million, attorneys told CNN on Wednesday.
Brandon Mayfield was arrested in Portland, Oregon, on a material witness warrant in May 2004, less than two months after the train bombings.
The settlement was confirmed by both sides. It was reached Tuesday during a conference with a federal judge, attorneys said.
