>> it's the biggest smoke screen i've ever seen in my life. the judge just bought it. >> after his exoneration, joe went to work as a maintenance man at neil's parish, the church of st. clarence in north olmstead, ohio. >> the state did absolutely positively nothing for me because i'm an exonoree. i'm the sixth in ohio history and the 140th in the united states to be exonerated. they do nothing for us. nothing at all. they open the door, they kick you out. get out. everything that i fought for for this country was taken from me. every last single right, for dang near 80% of my adult life. >> joe knows that he owes his freedom and his life to one man. >> if it wasn't for neil, i would have been murdered ten years ago, easily.
