At least he spent 25 years in the slammer. It's not like he got away with murder like Fat Ted.

Agca spent 19 years and one month in prison in Italy between the day he was captured after he shot the pope on May 13, 1981, in St. Peter's Square in Rome, and his extradition to Turkey on June 14, 2000. He served the last five years in Turkey for murdering the Turkish journalist Abdi Ipekci in 1979.

Within hours of his release, Justice Minister Cemil Cicek ordered a review of Agca's case, and later told a Turkish newspaper that Agca may be returned to his cell to serve at least 11 more months for killing Ipekci.

"At least he spent 25 years in the slammer. It's not like he got away with murder like Fat Ted."

19 years, 1 month for shooting the Pope and 5 years for murder.

I'm hopeful that the reason he hasn't checked in is because he has been checked out.
