    Honestly if I was 3-7 years from retirement and I had a choice between a somewhat comfortable prison or going to some shit job because no one will hire me as a felon…

    Really depends what their priorities are at that point. Who is left in their life who still cares about them, knowing they were murdering people left and right.

    I’m guessing they’ll get out after 16 years and find some way to not work, if they get out.
