2 men go free after their convictions were overturned in a case involving a discredited detective

Kansas Detective Overturned Conviction - (ASSOCIATED PRESS)

Two men were freed Wednesday after their convictions were overturned in a 2009 double homicide whose investigation was overseen by a discredited white Kansas City, Kansas, police detective.

Forty-year-old Dominique Moore said he was “thankful and blessed” after his release from a state prison in El Dorado. And cheers from a crowd of relatives greeted Cedric Warren, 34, as he walked out of jail in the county where he was convicted nearly 15 years ago in the drug house shooting that killed Charles Ford and Larry Ledoux.
