In a retrial that began after he spent 45 years on death row, 88-year-old Iwao Hakamada was found not guilty of a 1966 quadruple homicide.

A Japanese court has ruled that an 88-year-old former boxer was not guilty in a retrial for a 1966 quadruple murder case, reversing an earlier wrongful conviction after decades on death row.

Iwao Hakamada was accused of killing a family of four in 1966 and was found guilty two years later. His death sentence was finalized in 1980
