(Article via people) A Chicago man who spent two decades behind bars after being convicted of murder has been released from jail — nine years after his identical twin confessed to the crime.

On Tuesday night, Kevin Dugar, 43, was released from Cook County Jail in Chicago after a judge granted his release on a signature bond — pending trial, according to his attorney, Ron Safer, the Chicago Tribune and ABC7 report.

"Kevin's feeling great," Safer told ABC7 minutes after Dugar walked out of the prison. "He's a free man tonight. It's long overdue."

Dugar was in tears as he was reunited with his family, Safer told NBC News.

"He walked out into the open air and breathed his first breaths as a free man in almost 20 years," Safer told NBC News. "It was gratifying to watch his tears roll down his cheeks and their cheeks before (the tears) froze on their faces because it was about 7 below."

In 2005, Dugar was convicted of shooting and killing a rival gang member in 2003. He was sentenced to 54 years in prison. But in 2013, in what Safer tells PEOPLE is akin to the plot of a "Lifetime movie," his twin brother, Karl Smith, wrote Dugar a letter confessing to the murder.

"I have to get it off my chest before it kills me," Smith wrote, the Daily News reports. "So I'll just come clean and pray you can forgive me."
