With no fanfare, Sandra Hemme, the Missouri woman who spent 43 years in prison for a murder she did not commit, is finally free of the legal system. Livingston County Circuit Court Judge Ryan Horsman, who found Hemme innocent last summer, signed the final order on Tuesday that granted her freedom. The order from Horsman was a little more than a page long. “Sandra Hemme is hereby permanently and unconditionally discharged from custody,” the judge wrote.

Rayan Makarem says his family in Lebanon— who include his parents, cousins, and in-laws— are "as safe as they can be.""Safe" is a relative term right now for the country of roughly 5.5 million people, with a smaller landmass than Connecticut, as Lebanon faces constant aerial bombardment and an ongoing ground invasion from Israel's military, as part of a campaign against the Iran-backed militant group Hezbollah. Makarem grew up in Lebanon and moved to U.S. 10 years ago.
