BREAKING NEWS: Genarlow Wilson's Free From JailCourt: Teen-sex sentence 'cruel and unusual' punishment

ATLANTA, Georgia (CNN) -- The Georgia Supreme Court on Friday ordered that Genarlow Wilson be released from prison, ruling 4-3 that his sentence for a teen sex conviction was cruel and unusual punishment.

Genarlow Wilson's case received national attention and led to changes in Georgia law. Wilson was convicted in 2005 of having oral sex with a consenting 15-year-old girl when he was 17.

He has served more than two years in prison.

Wilson's attorney, B.J. Bernstein, told CNN that he can be released as soon as a Monroe County judge issues a new order and it is served to the attorney general and the department of corrections.

Bernstein said she called the prison warden, who has informed Wilson of his pending release, which could come "some time today."
