CHICAGO, Illinois (PNN) - February 21, 2025 - After nearly 30 years in prison for a murder he did not commit, Friday was Robert Johnson's first day of freedom, a day after a judge vacated
his 1996 murder conviction.
Johnson has not been free to spend a day the way he wants to since he was 16 years old. That is when he was arrested for a murder that he has always maintained he did not commit.
