[Between the Lines]

This guy has good timing.

It was not timing at all. He was a modle prisoner. The law in Texas at the time he was convicted said that anyone doing a life sentence was eligible for parole every seven years. This was his second time to be up for parole. The "massive early paroles" you speak of were not applicable to convicts with violent offences, muder is a violent offence.

I meant that he had good timing in that he did not commit these offenses today.
