After serving 32 years in jail for a murder he said he did not commit, a San Francisco man is free again.
Ciria was accused of murdering his friend, Felix Bastarrica, outside a South of Market motel in 1990.
Among the first people to hug Ciria at his release was his 32-year-old son Pedro, who was 6 months old when his father was arrested. Ciria's case is the latest to be taken up by Santa Clara University's Northern California Innocence Project.
