Hawaii man freed after 30 years in prison due to new DNA evidence

Gordon Cordeiro now adjusting to life with phones after judge overturned his conviction in 1994 Maui shooting

One of the first places Gordon Cordeiro visited when a judge ordered him released after spending 30 years in prison for a killing he always maintained he had nothing to do with was his mother's Hawaii gravesite.

In a videoconference interview on Saturday with the Associated Press, Cordeiro reflected on his first day of freedom after new DNA evidence led to the overturning of his conviction in the 1994 shooting of Timothy Blaisdell on the island of Maui.
