"Georgia man's tears of relief as murder charges dropped after 22 years of wrongful imprisonment"
A Georgia man, Joey Watkins, who spent over 20 years in prison for a murder he did not commit, had the charges against him dropped by a judge at the request of the district attorney. Watkins, who was initially convicted at the age of 20, wept upon hearing the news. The Georgia Innocence Project and other attorneys fought to overturn his conviction, and the Georgia Supreme Court agreed that he should have a new trial. Watkins celebrated his freedom and expressed gratitude for a second chance at life.
