In this photo provided by The Innocence Center and the California Innocence Project, Gerardo Cabanillas waves from outside the Hall of Justice in downtown Los Angeles after his release on Tuesday, Sept. 26, 2023. Cabanillas, who spent nearly 30 years in prison for kidnapping, robbery and rape, has been declared innocent and freed, Los Angeles County prosecutors announced Tuesday. DNA testing helped exonerate Cabanillas of the 1995 attack on two couples sitting in parked cars in South Gate, the county district attorney's office said in a statement.
