Innocent man to be freed after 16 years in prison

A man has been exonerated after spending 16 years in jail - because he had the same teardrop tattoo as a serial rapist, SIA informs citing the Independent.

Luis Lorenzo Vargas, 46, was convicted of sexually assaulting three women in 1999 after jurors decided he was the so-called ‘teardrop rapist’, an unidentified attacker who is now believed to have raped 39 women over the course of 20 years from 1995.

But following a longstanding campaign to have him released, a judge in Los Angeles has reversed the conviction after DNA testing proved he did not commit the crime.
