Welcome to Murf’s Law: Everything that could go wrong, did. Then came the jail breakthrough.

By Jeff Klinkenberg - St. Petersburg Times

BUSHNELL — Jack Roland Murphy hates visiting prisons. “They’re literally hell on earth,” he always says. As Inmate No. 02467 he spent nearly two decades in Florida’s most notorious lockups. But he keeps going back to the places he hates most with a message he once sneered at.

Classy crook? Killed two women, cut them open and dumped them into the bay. Hope he rots where ever he goes.

I was from South Florida and had the pleasure of meeting him - he was “preaching” at a small gathering in a hotel. I still remember that sermon (not many that I do) - he had a real way of connecting with people.

He has Jesus as his defense attorney now - his problems are over!
