Imagine if you kept your mouth shut.

You could have walked free, even as a murderer.

Literally every convicted criminal's dream.

Out of prison on licence, subject to recall to prison at any time. The licence lasts for life I believe, so definitely not “free”. He’s finding that out now.

That sounds like a good way of phrasing "if I literally shut up and don't annoy anyone I could stay free potentially forever"

You're expecting a criminal to stop being one. While that is supposedly the intended effect of jail it doesn't always work so well

Well look.

Prison is a reality shock for some. It really makes some people regret their actions. The smarter ones if they get put were this person was they would probably be smart about it.

I think though in the end... that person is a man. Men have their pride, like being people of importance. The pride got to them and they went and make a ruckus.

Think like [spoiler]Jesse Pinkman[/spoiler] from Breaking Bad. That's the kind of thing people would probably do.

Your spoiler didn't work but I haven't seen breaking bad anyway so idc. Either way my point is that criminals aren't great at doing what's in their best interest

They can’t help themselves. If they could, they wouldn’t be criminals. And troons aren’t too good on placing governors on their own behaviors as it is. Let him rot.
