Story here. Excerpt:

'Tuesday was a day to remember for two Chicago men who were released from prison after the Cook County State’s Attorney’s office dropped charges against them. The state’s attorney herself admitted it was time to right these legal wrongs.

58-year-old Carl Chatman was behind bars for 11 years accused of raping a woman in the Daley Center back in 2002. The facts of that case against him just didn’t add up and today, Chatman left the Dixon Correctional Center after more than a decade.

“God answered my dream today,” he said.'
