Wendell Brown was convicted and given a lengthy sentence that his lawyer said was excessive.
Brown won his freedom from a Chinese prison after being held for three years for a bar fight he said he didn't start and wasn't responsible for.
He said he was throwing up his hands in self-defense, but the Chinese government charged him with what amounts to criminal assault.
Brown said after pleas from family members, friends, the State Department and the state of Michigan, he was released a year early.
