ATLANTIC CITY A 45-year-old man who on Friday finished serving 30 years in prison is charged with killing his mother two days after being released, authorities said.
Steven Pratt was arrested Sunday morning, less than 48 hours after he was freed from Bayside State Prison for killing his neighbor in 1984.
Gwendolyn Pratt, 64, was found dead in her McKinley Avenue home around 6:30 a.m. Sunday, Atlantic City Prosecutor Jim McClain said. She died of massive blunt injuries to her head.
A welcome-home party for Steven Pratt had just been held, PressofAC.com reported.

Welcome home, Dindu Nuffins.
The irony is so thick here you could build a jail with it.
Look, if you got to put a guy in the slammer for an extended period of time, you may as well keep him there because he is not coming out well-adjusted.
Looks like “rehabilitation” works well.
If you got to put a guy in the slammer for an extended period of time, you might as well execute him.
Let me guess.
In 1984 momma was saying “He be a good boy, he be getting his life turned around”.
That’s going to get him a darn good talking-to by his parole officer.
Steve was grateful for the chance to be FREE and kill again..
Maybe there ARE ZOMBIES.................
The Death penalty wasn’t not such a bad idea after all.
Unfinished business.
Yup, guess she should of visited him more often.
What is it with so many people here who don’t understand when to use “be” in a sentence and when not to.
In ordinary usage that sentence would read: He a good boy, he getting his life turned around.
Yet another news story that makes me admire the chinese criminal justice system. They got a lot of things wrong, but dragging murderers out and putting a bullet through their skulls is one thing they got right.
“Dindu Nuffins”
I love it. Sounds like a character in a graphic novel.
He killed his neighbor when he was 15?
Just a guess, but if he makes bail, I think you can kiss it goodbye.
If we just took every violent felon and threw them in an incinerator, we would save an enormous amount of money and prevent an enormous amount of crime.
Liberal ideology really can be summed up by my tagline.
he killed a bear when he was only 3
Was there even one white at the party so we know who to blame??
Punishment obviously works. He was cured in prison and then society made him bad again.
