“A 58-year-old Brooklyn man was released from prison Thursday after his murder conviction was overturned following a witness’ confession that he was coaxed by authorities into identifying him as the suspect, CNN reported on Friday.  ‘As I said from the beginning, I had nothing to do with this case,’ David Ranta said after leaving prison. Ranta’s case was reopened in 2011, after a witness, Menachem Lieberman, told his court-appointed attorney that police had told him to ‘pick the guy with the big nose’ when identifying suspects in a lineup.”
