Kwil's attorneys said his case is the 40th connected to disgraced Chicago Detective Reynaldo Guevara to be thrown out.
Richard Kwil will soon be leaving Pontiac prison, where he has been held for more than 24 years.
"Really happy," Kwil's daughter, Aixa Hernandez said. "He was away for a really long time. I'm just glad we get to build a relationship with him, finally." "The verdict is in the question. Is the city of Chicago going to accept and acknowledge that verdict and take some action to bring some justice to these victims," Anand Swaminathan, another of Kwil's attorneys, asked.
"We'll never get the full justice we desire but at least we are with our families now," said fellow exoneree David Gecht.
