Man wrongfully convicted of rape in US freed after 45 years in prison

A 65-year-old Louisiana man who was arrested at 19 and sentenced to life without parole has walked out of prison saying "God is so good" after his rape conviction was overturned by a judge.

Authorities withheld evidence that could have exonerated Wilbert Jones decades ago and their case against him was "weak at best", State District Judge Richard Anderson said.
