A Los Angeles Superior Court Judge, William
Ryan, has overturned the conviction of a man
who spent 16 years in clink for sexual 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 the clink for crimes he
didn't commit since day 1999 and was serving a
sentence of 55 years to life for three sexual
assaults he didn't commit When the verdict was
announced & the old guy was declared innocent, he placed
his hand to his forehead, covered his eyes and
shed some eyes water as he was finally free of the
shame. His mother & daughter were present in
court.
, 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.
