      27 savage an attempt implies that it wasn't successful because it was an attempt, so for it to say "he hand a handful of successful escape attempts" would mean that even if he didn't make it over it was still a successful attempt, because an attempt is any time you try it

    Prison is his life, some people are in there so long that they wouldn't know how to handle the freedom. I was incarcerated for about a year once. September of 2017 until June of 2018. And getting released from that amount of time was overwhelming. You go from being told when to sleep, when to sit, where to stand, when to talk, when to shut up, when to shit, even where to look or not look, to all of a sudden no one giving you any direction. It's almost to much of a change for your brain to handle, because you've been programmed to be given instructions on every decision. At this point in that mans life to a certain extent he wouldn't necessarily like the free world.

    • @evanhalsey1844
      @evanhalsey1844 2 роки тому +5

      It’s probably not even worth getting out ever again after being incarcerated for so long. He wouldn’t know anyone on the outside anymore because everyone he’s known has either died or moved on without him, he’d have to get a job, find a place to live, find appropriate workplace clothes, and possibly just go from prison to a nursing home. It’s not worth getting out and experiencing freedom just to have a short time to live and not experience it completely.

    He’s been sheltered from the reality of this world! A dog eat dog job, workplace politics, having to support a wife and kids, a mortgage, paying bills, and worrying about being robbed or killed! He looks good for his age, not senile, and has a lot of social energy for almost 80 years old. Being a lifer in prison has taken care of him, especially in a state like Maine! Most people died before this age or decrepit and in a rocking chair or nursing home when he was a young man. He has the accent that was so common for working-class rural New Englander’s back then, now it sounds almost foreign!
    And that Shawshank Redemption movie. That was a complete fairy tale of a Maine prison. This is reality!

    I've arrested at least two convicts, who after a short time after serving their sentences and being paroled , committed additional crimes, and when Interviewed they told me that they needed to go back to prison. My understanding in both situations was that they needed structure in their lives and it was a lot easier and less stressful to be locked up where all of their needs were met. Sounds crazy but true.

    A cousin of mine, a doctor was killed for no reason by a policeman in the 80's, nobody went to jail, though in the patrol he was a part of everybody knew who was the killer.
    How many policemen have wrongly killed people? Happens everyday. How many of them served 40, 50 years? I don't know 1. How many killed again and again?
    Nobody cares for that. Yet a man who's been imprisioned for 50 years, in his late 70's or 80's still needs to be in jail?

      +Antonio Ferrer I agree. It's very disturbing how these trigger happy pigs have a license to kill. I just read a very fucked up disturbing article about a trigger happy pig that shot dead 2 people within seconds says he "didn't see his female victim was just trying to aim at his male victim". I call that bullshit. The most disturbing, fucked up part about the article is that he's actually SUING his male victim's family for "extreme emotional distress". That pig is a lowlife scumbag with NO regard for human life like all the other trigger happy heartless pigs/sociopaths, but the one suing his victim's family for 10 million is a money hungry heartless sociopath. Only way he'll see millions if if the dirty rotten son of a whore wins the lotto.
