Double Olympic champion fought for freedom of Jonathan IronsCouple fought for 13 years to free Irons over wrongful convictionWNBA star Maya Moore has married the man she helped free from prison.
Moore was in the prime of her playing days when she paused her
basketball career at the age of 30 in February 2019 to work on the campaign to free Jonathan Irons. Irons, who is now 40, had been serving a 50-year
prison sentence over the
shooting of a homeowner during a robbery when Irons was 16. A judge ruled in March that prosecutors had suppressed fingerprint evidence that could have helped prevent Irons being found guilty, and he was freed in July.
