At age 22, he was sentenced to life in the United States in 1983, after stealing $ 50.75 from a bakery. It is after 36 years behind bars that the young man will be released from prison Wednesday, say several American media including the Washington Post.
"I just want to say that I'm sorry for what I did, I take responsibility for my actions in the past, I want the opportunity to redeem myself", he said during his court hearing in the city of Bessemer, according to the local television channel WIAT.
