Kansas man freed after lookalike discovered
Richard Anthony Jones, a man from the US state of Kansas, served 17 years for an aggravated robbery which he didn't commit. He's just been released after a man who bore an uncanny resemblance to him was linked to the crime.
Richard Anthony Jones and his attorney Alice Craig told Newshour he was "not mad at anybody, just glad I had people who believed in me".
