"A pedophile who was part of the international child pornography ring that exchanged videos and photos of themselves molesting children was sentenced Thursday to more than 467 years to life in state prison."
Once word gets around in the prison, unless the dude is put into solitary confinement, life sentence will probably exist for about a year.
Solitary only provides protection if the CO's want it to. And that's not too likely for this guy.
He probably won't last a year, and even if he does, he's going to suffer. Prisoners compete to meter out justice for guy's like this.
