Thats an interesting point. If I was in jail for 5 years on pot possession, then it's made legal, I should be released IMHO. However, I dont think I should be entitled to compensation like I would if I was accused of rape but was cleared by modern DNA techniques.
But I doubt that "simple possession" is why most are in there.. they probably were also brought up on "intent to distribute" or other charges like that. Growing, selling etc. would not be made "legal", so no luck for probably 90% of them.
