81 yr old man caught after escaping prison...


Recommended Posts

don't do the crime if you can't do the time.

 

I'm a little confused--isn't robbery with a deadly weapon against the law? Wasn't he convicted of this charge? Last I checked, escape from prison is also against the law. I think Maryland should make him serve his sentence out and add the charge of escape. In addition, has he ever made restitution to the victim or the victim's family?

After his 1965 escape, he was arrested several times under different identities around the country.

 

While later serving a jail sentence in Washington state, Parker said he was told Maryland had dropped its detainer on him. He went back to using his real name and worked in New York collecting money from city parking meters. He was collecting veteran and Social Security benefits, and had been voting.

 

Something isn't quite right here....

I think that he should have a parole hearing.

 

If it seems like he has been living well and is rehabilitated - they should consider this done.

 

They mentioned that he was arrested several times after he escaped though. If he still continued to committ crimes after escaping - than they should force him to finish his sentance.
