His (and the rest of the Central Park Fives') convictions were tossed out, and they were exonerated after an unassociated serial rapist and murderer confessed to the crime. https://www.nytimes.com/2002/12/06/nyregion/a-crime-revisited-the-decision-13-years-later-official-reversal-in-jogger-attack.html https://abcnews.go.com/Primetime/story?id=132017&page=1 https://www.nytimes.com/2002/12/19/nyregion/judge-vacates-convictions-in-1989-central-park-jogger-case.html https://www.wsj.com/articles/central-park-five-agree-to-40-million-wrongful-conviction-settlement-1403231947
