leonard mack. a different man has been identified who has since confessed to the crime. joining me now is mr. ard mack and susan freedman. thanks so much for being here in particular. you have been hoping to clear your name for nearly 50 years. and it finally happened and on your 72nd birthday, no less. you had to tell us, what does this all feel like in this moment? >> to be honest, it feels unreal. >> tell me why. >> it feels unreal because it finally happened. and because it took so long. 48 years. and, the reason it feels real is because the reality is sitting in. yesterday, when the judge read her decision. and said that the conviction had been vacated, and i was exonerated, i just thank the lord that it was the day finally came. and now the reality of it is setting in. >> mr. mack, you spent more than 70 years in prison for a crime. and i want to reiterate, you did not commit this crime. you did not commit this crime. and yet you have been fighting all this time to get your name cleared. as the reality sets in, thinking about what was lost. that time. what it did to you, to your family.
