<p>A Chicago man was released from prison on bond Tuesday after serving nearly 20 years due to his twin brother confessing to the crime. Kevin Dugar walked out of Cook County Jail a free man at around 9:30 p.m., his lawyer told ABC News. Dugar's brother, Karl Smith, confessed he was the one to pull the trigger in a 2003 shooting on Chicago's North Side, according to Chicago ABC station WLS. Dugar was convicted of the crime in 2005 and was serving a 54-year sentence. Smith, who is currently serving a sentence of 99 years for a different shooting, first confessed to the murder in 2013, according to the Center on Wrongful Convictions, which partnered with Dugar's lawyer to help free him. A judge did not believe Smith's confession was credible and denied Dugar a new trial in 2018, according to WLS.</p>
