00:10 This morning, Judge William Cook signed an agreement made by the Hennepin County
00:17 Attorney's Office and the defense to set aside Mr. Haynes' wrongful conviction.
00:22 Mr. Haynes walked out of prison this morning a free man.
00:27 >> I'm just appreciative to be here and people to recognize my innocence.
00:30 So I'm just grateful.
00:32 I mean, it took 19 years, but I'm here and all I wanna do is move forward and
00:37 just get my life back, that's it.
00:39 If it wasn't for my sister and the Innocence Project, I wouldn't be here.
00:43 It took my sister, my sister lost so much trying to fight for me to get innocence.
00:48 She neglected herself in the process of me getting my life back.
00:52 So I mean, words cannot describe what she meant to me and my family.
