Longer facing charges after new evidence showed he had an alibi. He was originally convicted in a shooting that left a boy paralyzed. New tonight, the victims mother says that letting rollins free feels like a slap in the face. She spoke exclusively to nbc10s drew smith, who is live in center city with more. Drew. Reporter jim, we have two very different emotions happening here. One family feeling whole again after their loved one walked out of these doors a free man today. But there is another family out there still feeling like theyre struggling for justice a decade after a young boys dreams were shattered in gun violence. There were big smiles at the criminal Justice Center tonight with Dante Rollins walking free into the arms of his mother. It was messed up what happened to me, but its over now. So im going to start my life. Reporter the District Attorney says new evidence backed rollins alibi that he wasnt at the scene of the shooting that left 6yearold ja bar wright paralyzed. I wasnt there. I mean cant get no truer than that there. Reporter while rollins finally feels vindicated, there are different emotions going through ja bars mother. Tired, confused, outraged. Reporter she says ever since the Innocence Project took on rollins case, it has moved too fast, and theyve lost sight of the victim. You feel like this man is innocent, let twelve jurors decide it. Reporter but there will be no new trial. The d. A. s office is dropping all charges. Although it is regretfully painful to the wright family, justice has finally been done here today. Reporter rollins legal team says they are thrilled he will get to spend the holidays with his family after they worked so hard for his release. While the wrights will be toe together too, they continue to agonize over ja bars pain. Were no longer the victim. How can it be that its the holidays and they have holidays and my kids dont have holidays. I dont have i dont have money. I dont have resources. Reporter and Alicia Wright says she will never stop fighting for her son. As for donte rollins, he says hes looking forward to a nice bath, time with his family, and doing something productive with his newly free life. Were live outside the criminal Justice Center in center city. Im drew smith, nbc10 news. New at 11 00, a close call for two philadelphia detectives. A forklift driver plowed into their car with them inside. Nbc10 at 16th and Carpenter Street just after the accident. If the forklift had hit a few inches differently, the detectives could have been seriously hurt. No one was injured, though, even though their car had major damage. 50 million. Thats how much ikea will pay the families of three toddlers killed when dressers tipped over onto them. One of those toddlers was a 2yearold from westchester. His family bought his dresser from the ikea store in consha hocking, and nbc10s aundrea clinethomas is live there tonight. Aundrea. Reporter no amount of money can ever bring back their child. The hope, though, is that the settlement can keep other families from having to endure their pain. Take a look at their little faces. Camden ellis is from washington state. Ted mcgee is from minnesota. And curren collis is from westchester. Each boy was 2 years old when they died after an ikea dresser tipped over and crushed them. I didnt see him anywhere. So i went over and kind of pulled everything apart, and i saw the little top of his head trapped between the dresser and the edge of the bed. Reporter earlier this year, currens mother recalled what she called the worst thing thats ever happened to her family. She joins the two other families and filed a lawsuit against ikea. In june, the Furniture Company issued a National Recall of 29 million dressers, the same model that tipped over and killed all three boys. I think ikea recognizes that it made a defective product and a product that exposed kids all over america to danger. Reporter in a settlement, ikea agreed to pay 50 million to be divided equally between each family. Ikea will also increase funding for safety campaigns. Alan feldman, an attorney representing the family, says ikea is sending a clear message. I think what ikea was trying to do is effectively say were sorry. They have agreed to never again sell chest or dressers that dont meet the National Safety standard. Reporter nbc10 reached out to jackie collas, she declined an on camera interview but said in a statement, im so proud we were able to negotiate such great terms, to know that my little boy was able to save so many children makes my heart happy. Solace in the midst of deep pain, hoping no other family will have to endure. Also as a part of the settlement, ikea will be donating 150,000 to Childrens Hospitals across the country. That includes chop. Now, the story serves as a reminder about the importance of anchoring furniture to the wall, especially if children are in the house. Reporting live from conshohocken, aundrea clinethomas, nbc10 news. Thank you.
