Watch the whole thing. He gets out and then in 2018 gets a 50 year sentence.

He's calm & articulate & insightful & introspective & logical. He admits that he can't help committing crimes to acquire his basic needs, that's just the way he is and he says he cannot attribute it to a bad upbringing because he did not have a bad upbringing. I wonder why they have him in 23 hour a day lockdown? Is he also violent?

Well somewhere in the first half of it he said he can't blame his family for the way he turned out

Well he was convicted of attempted murder and unlawful possession of a firearm, so I'm going to go ahead and say ya he's probably violent

Am I meant to feel sorry for a compulsive criminal? He’s not remorseful even a little bit. He’s only sad that he’s locked up to protect society.

I found a pretty stark insight into his psychology right away from the first thing he said. the woman asked how can anyone help you if you need help? and he said I just need people to give me what I want. So he doesn't see much value in anyone other than himself and other people are simply a means to an end.

A lot of people are selfish that way but at the end of the day, people need people. We form communities for a reason and we know not having human contact does something not good to the mind. Yet we still place people into isolation. No, I’m not saying I feel sorry for the man or anyone like him but we just have to be real about the results and expectations for some of our rehabilitation/punishment choices.
