Innocent Man Exonerated Of Rape He Didn't Commit After 16 Years In Prison.

A Los Angeles Superior Court Judge, William Ryan,
has overturned the conviction of a man who spent
16 years in prison for s*xual assaults that DNA
evidence later proved he didn't commit. The man
named Luis Vargas broke down in tears as the judge
ordered the case dismissed after new DNA evidence
linked the crime to a serial attacker on the FBI's
Most Wanted list.

Luis Vargas had been in prison for crimes he
didn't commit since 1999 and was serving a
sentence of 55 years to life for three s*xual
assaults he didn't commit. When the verdict was
announced and he was declared innocent, he placed
his hand to his forehead, covered his eyes and
shed some tears as he was finally free of the shame.
His mother and daughter were present in court.

However, Vargas is not a free man yet because of
his immigration status. He has been taken into federal
custody until his green card can be restored.
