'It's a joy to be free again,' says exoneree who served 30 years in Dallas robbery, rape

A parolee who served more than 30 years for a crime he didn't commit was exonerated this morning in a Dallas courtroom.
"You're free to go," State District Judge Don Adams told Cornelius Dupree Jr., one of two men wrongly convicted in a 1979 abduction, robbery and rape in Dallas.   Dupree, who has been on parole since July, served more prison time than any
other Texas inmate cleared through DNA testing.
