Anyone here read a particular one of Jack London’s classics? The title ends with Bureau.

I’ve been through Chowchilla many times—it’s off Rte. 99 north of Madera, Calif.

Imagine this psycho will have access to the internet (which wasn’t available when he was 24) after his release.

It’s like releasing Manson and giving him access to the internet. Great idea!

I wonder if the media will buy into a suicide story for this
guy?

Yep, knew it.

From Wikipedia (I know, consider the source)-

“In October 2019, Woods was denied parole for the 19th time; his next parole hearing was set for 2024.[13][14] Over the years, reasons given for the denials have included his continued minimization of his crime as well as disciplinary infractions for possession of contraband pornography and cellphones.[15][16]”

The dud(e) was in freaking prison and had porn and cellphones. Can’t wait to see what he does next!!

I remember this so well, and was horrified back then, and felt so badly for their parents. A friend was a pilot and flew all over the valley looking for that busload of children, but to no avail as it could not be seen from the air. Those kids are adults now...that guy who did it will never have a “free” moment if and when he s released because those adults will be gunning for him, and deservedly so.

This is why voters overwhelmingly approve the death penalty every time it is on the ballot. Because in Kalifornia, LWOP doesn’t mean Life Without Parole. Not to worry, I have to think one of those kids suffering from PTSD will shank this mf and send him across the river to hell.

Unbelievable, but then not, in today’s insane California.
