“He is overjoyed to be free but is also adjusting to a world that is quite different from the world he left 20 years ago when he was arrested for this crime he did not commit,” the attorney said Thursday.

The evil twin. Rare in reality but quite common in tv and movies.

Nope. Fake confession to get your brother out.

Maybe they should have believed him when he said his evil twin did it, not him.
