Four-time WNBA champion Maya Moore sat out for an entire season to help overturn the conviction of Jonathan Irons, who she said was wrongfully serving a 50-year- prison sentence.
On Wednesday, Irons walked out a free man -- and Moore was one of the first to embrace him."Thank God it's over," Moore said in a video of Irons' release she posted on her Instagram, captioned with the word"FREEDOM."The two met in 1998, when Moore was just 16 years old, in a prison ministry. Irons had been convicted for burglary and assaulting a homeowner with a gun -- a conviction that was overturned by a judge in March.
