Former NYPD Sergeant Erik Duran has been released from prison while he appeals his manslaughter conviction. Duran was sentenced to 1-3 years in prison for his role in the 2010 shooting death of a bystander during a police operation. The case drew widespread attention due to allegations of police misconduct and inadequate training. Duran's release comes as his lawyers continue to argue that the conviction was unjust and that he should be granted a new trial.
