A Texas man who spent 19 years in prison for the killing of a friend has been freed after a witness said he lied and a bloody palm print at the crime scene was linked to another person.

Nolley was sentenced to life in prison in 1998 after being convicted in the stabbing death of Sharon McLane in Bedford.
