The world's longest-serving death row prisoner was acquitted by a Japanese court after it found that evidence used against the 88-year-old was fabricated. Iwao Hakamada, who's been on death row for over half a century, was found guilty in 1968 of killing his boss, the man's wife and their two children. "The court finds the defendant innocent," the judge said.
