NEW YORK Two men behind bars for more than half their lives over a triple murder walked free this week after DNA evidence tore holes in their convictions.

Antonio Yarbough and Sharrif Wilson were teenagers when prison doors clanked shut behind them.

Now, in their late 30s, they can hardly believe theyre out.

What does freedom feel like? Im still going through it right now, Yarbough said Friday.

I havent slept yet. Ive been up for two days now. I have no words for it right now.

Nearly 22 years of hard time

Imagine more than two decades in a maximum security prison. Add to that the fact that youre accused of killing your mother, your sister and your cousin.

As if thats not enough, you were the one who discovered their lifeless, bloodied bodies when you opened the door to your home one night.
