Former Atlanta mayor goes free

Former Atlanta Mayor Bill Campbell is a free man. Campbell has spent more than two years in prison and a halfway house for tax evasion. The FBI says the man who served eight years as Atlanta's mayor was released from a Salvation Army halfway house in West Palm Beach, Fla., just before lunch today. Campbell was convicted in 2006 of evading taxes on more than $160,000 in income.
