I chose C after giving D a consideration. I don't think this is a parallelism issue here, but I just thought that D was awkward.

С D is wrong. Guys, my advice is read the MGMAT SC attentively! Not all the nouns are parallel, Do not parallel concrete nouns (dog, flowers, region) with Action nouns (pollution, development, change, etc). Ex - WRONG : Continent and pollution are in D, exoneration is an action noun , while freedom is a concrete noun - so D is not parallel. in C both "being exonerated" and "freed" - are paralle, and both are states of being.

I picked C...I was hesitant to pick C because of "being" but the other answer were not even close.

ashishd wrote: Framed by traitorous colleagues, Alfred Dreyfus was imprisoned for twelve years before there was exoneration and his freedom.
(A) there was exoneration and his freedom
(B) he was to be exonerated with freedom
(C) being exonerated and freed
(D) exoneration and his freedom
(E) being freed, having been exonerated IMO C. "Being" is not always wrong on the gmat. It is used as present participle here.

key lies in 'before'... exoneration = judged not guilty.. so before being sentenced not guilty(exonerated) and freed...( gives a right sense) so answer is C
