I just can't see him lasting two minutes in the outside world. Violence and criminality is all he's ever known. At best he'd be back inside in no time. At worst someone would get badly hurt or maybe even killed, in the process. I'd be very very surprised if he got parole.
His conduct at the parole hearing should stop him getting parole. Still believes his violence has been justified, isn't ashamed of his actions in taking hostages(so no remorse), admits he loves fighting and thinks that's normal, boasted about assaulting a prison officer and lost his temper with someone giving evidence but seems to think it isn't him who's the problem, it's everyone else who's out to get him. I don't think he's even been in prison for the last few decades. I'm sure he was posting on here regularly till he got banned and went to tykesmad
I think he deserves a chance, there are many worse than him who have served less. He's no need to turn to crime, he could easily set himself up on Cameo and sell videos for £100 a go, that's in addition to his art.
the thing is though, everywhere he goes, there's gonna be people wanting to make a name for themselves, or drag him back into that world. first time he's put in that position, how is he going to respond? I can't see him just backing away. as has been said on other posts, he doesn't seem to have shown too much remorse for his actions. arguably psychopathic.
To get parole you usually have to show remorse and admit your crimes. As I understand it that's not the case here.
