Maurice Hastings spent 38 years behind bars and while many would have expected him to be bitter and angry after his release, that was not the case. In fact, he came out with a huge smile across his face and says how happy he is to be able to count his blessings.

The DNA test that he undertook was clearly pointing toward another suspect. And it’s obvious that this meant he was innocent and wrongly kept behind bars.

Hastings had been charged with special circumstances murder and the DA office even went about keeping a death penalty for him. But it was observed that the jury was not keen on that decision.

They vowed to investigate further and carry on with the proceedings and that is what brought about different results.

“Being free from a wrongful conviction is the best feeling in the world. It means so much. I am so grateful to the judge for the ruling. History has been made”- he further elaborated while wiping tears of joy from his face.
