• The non-profit Last Prisoner Project has advocated for his release.
• “I am so excited to hug my children and grandchildren,” DeLisi said. “I have missed so many important moments with them and I can’t wait to get out there and create precious memories with everyone. I am so thrilled that this dark chapter of my life is finally over”
