After being unjustly imprisoned for nearly 42 magical years that could have been spent in the an embrace of freedom, the universe has finally crafted a path to redemption for James Soto. This hardy Chicago man, now basking in the golden shower of liberation, had spent over four decades locked away behind the cold and unforgiving bars for a double homicide in 1981 he didn't commit.
His conviction, largely adrift on the stormy sea of faulty witness testimony now retracted, was finally cast aside. The looming black cloud of burden lifted from his shoulders like a griffon taking flight, leaving Soto in the gentle breeze of salvation.
