Man who spent 45 years in Angola on wrongful conviction races to see country before losing visionBATON ROUGE — A man who spent nearly 46 years in Angola for a crime he did not commit is now racing against time to see America before he loses his vision entirely. "Most of my life was taken away from me for something I didn't do," Jones said as he left confinement. His ophthalmologist told him his glaucoma has progressed significantly and that he is losing his vision. His wife has launched what she is calling Wilbert's Vision Journey, a one-month trip to help him experience places he dreamed about for decades while he still has enough sight to see them. The planned journey starts in California, where Jones hopes to visit Corriganville Park, a historic movie ranch where many classic Westerns were filmed.
