US: Man freed after 43-year solitary confinement
Albert Woodfox, who spent 43 years in solitary confinement in a Louisiana prison, was released from prison on Friday. This comes after Louisiana State agreed to not hold a third trial for Woodfox after his conviction in the 1972 prison guard murder case had been overturned twice earlier. Woodfox's solitary confinement is reportedly the longest ever in US history.
