A convicted kidnapper who kept 26 children and a school bus driver in a buried trailer has been granted his freedom - after the governor of California didn't object to parole.
James Schoenfeld, 63, kidnapped the bus carrying the group then buried them alive in a chilling heist inspired by the film Dirty Harry.
Schoenfeld confessed to carrying out the 1976 crime with his brother Richard and his friend Fred Woods.
He was originally given a life sentence, which was commuted to allow the possibility of parole. This will now be granted to him after almost 40 years in prison.
Governor Jeremy Brown could have denied the recommendation of Schoenfeld's parole board, but took no action.

Those kids are now adults, and some should consider paying this vermin a little visit.
I suspect those kids and their parents better not find out where he goes
*********************************************************************
Those kids are 50 years old by now. Their parents? Probably 70s or 80s.
And I guarantee there hasn't been a single day where all of them haven't thought about what they'd like to do to this guy.
I don’t know if you have children.....I do, and although I’m called to forgive, I still would keep this perp incarcerated
......but these little ones suffered......I believe the ages ranged from 5 to 13 or so
The air was fetid, hot and miserable....I believe some of the children needed medication.
.....what do you not understand about imprisoning little kids...........
..... thanks to the heroics of the bus driver, had to dig his way from underground in a hot desert.....it wasnt easy
That’s the only reason no one died, by God’s mercies
You say the perp’s life is spent....
Well, guess what.....those children who are now adults still have nightmares and issues from this
