Gordon Cordeiro, 51, who was serving a life sentence for a 1994 murder on Maui, was released on Friday after DNA evidence was presented in his case.

Behind bars for 30 years, Gordon Cordeiro's first desire was to visit the grave of his mother, who died of ALS just before he was arrested.

Gordon Cordeiro spent three decades in prison in a case involving the killing of Timothy Blaisdell on the island of Maui in 1994.

A Hawaii man was freed after spending 30 years in prison for a murder he says he did not commit, and one of the first things he did after his release was visit his mother's grave.
