Well, he already has 63 years.

Can't do much more harm.

How could someone move to Huntsville and NOT know there was a prison that has been there since the 1800's.

He would have been eligible for parole in 2036.

First of all, I knew there was "a prison" here. Like I said above, I did not know there were somewhere near a dozen. Second, as I stated above, it wouldn't have changed much either way. And third, I could give you a month to Google it to your hearts content, there would still be things you wouldn't know about MY hometown.
Edit to add. Weather I knew about, or cared about the existence of the prison(S), what does that have to do with being concerned about an inmate that has actually escaped? NOT hand wringing about it "maybe" happening.

Texas has prisons scattered all over the state, wherever you go you won't be far from one.
And I could care less about YOUR hometown.

Boy, that's one heck of a way of avoiding every point I made.

Eligible yes, but with his record there'd likely be at least 2 set asides.

When you are from TX, you know that Huntsville is where the bad guys go to be put to death. There are prisons spread out across TX but Huntsville's economy is built around prisons.

Just 43yrs younger, SHSU is kinda important to the area also.
