trial. >> another case that so many people are talking about today. have you ever met a 29-year-old who has never sent a text, never posted a facebook update, never used a smartphone. there is one man, ryan ferguson, who hasn't been able to do any of that. why? he's been locked in prison for almost a decade. as of last night, he is free. well, he's free, period, and he can do all of these things. >> so ferguson, as you can see there, walked out of prison to a cheering crowd after a missouri appeals court overturned his 2005 murder conviction. he was only 19 years old when he was convicted of murdering a newspaper sports editor. during that trial, ferguson was implicated by two key witnesses, but last year, the same witnesses admitted they had lied. all the while, ferguson and his family maintained his innocence. he spoke to cnn earlier today about what his future holds.
