DNA Test Frees Man After Nearly 18 Years

[Triggerfish]

Doswell walked out of the county jail a free man — expressing thanks, not bitterness.

"I'm thankful to be home," he told The Associated Press from his mother's house. "I'm thankful justice has been served. The court system is not perfect, but it works."



Wow how could someone be so positive after spending that many years in prison when he was innocent?

He's got to be one of the few that would not react in a negative way. I, myself, would probably hold a lot of anger and resentment if it were me. He missed out on so much with his family that he can never get back.

Good on him.
