A federal judge ordered the release of Winfield S. Waters, 85, who was jailed five years ago for attempted rape of a school teacher. The judge ruled state courts refused to reconsider the sentence, noting Waters’ near blindness and crippled legs made the act implausible. Waters left prison for his sister’s five acre farm and said he hoped berries would be good this spring.
