Dude I totally forgot about the silk road guy! I hadn't heard what happened to him after he got arrested.

I understand it was a single incident and he got more notoriety for his courtroom behaviour, but Darrell Brooks for the Waukesha parade attack should also be mentioned. The number of people who's lives he changed forever and sadly not even for the families of 6 people he murdered but the hundreds who attended the parade and thousands who watched the trial unfold on live coverage.
Thank to the list
Send Terry Nichols to Oklahoma. We'll gladly take care of him.
Don’t worry these people a few years into 23 hours in a box change there attitude pretty quick
Glad to see these people got their due karma. BTK’s arrogance getting himself caught is satisfying. Glad this monster did not get the chance to live the rest of his life in peace which he could have since some law enforcement were no longer looking for him due to thinking he might be dead.

Florence Colorado is intense. No contact with any other prisoners. A half hour outside, two days a week. Cell has concrete desk, concrete chair, concrete bed, . No flush toilet, toilets are flushed automatically every four hours. Prisoners can't flood cell. Besides all that, it takes at least five hours to get there. That is by plane and car. Florence is in the middle of nowhere. . Not many visitors. Death is better in my opinion
I really hope they don’t get released.
