fucking cops talking about him like prey, dramatic music, heroic cops, my ass, homoophobic gun totting, self-righteous dickweeds. life in prison!!!!! why isn't ex-governor George W. Bush in jail. He's the biggest sociopath and conman alive!! he lied to an entire nation and had tens of thousands of iraqis killed for no reason, gave the US a laughable and dispicable rep. worldwide, not to mention the american soldiers that died for the interest big business had in middle eastern resources.
"She explained to me about the special need parole as about the terminally ill factor and all that and i said no way... this is not... something's not ri... this is no." The cop is a genius, doesn't he? 7:50
The prosecutor was just angry because she paid for college and law school and she still wasn't smarter than Russell. He spat in the systems face and will probably escape again. Also, it would be interesting to see if the company he stole money from actually made money while he was there even subtracting the amount Russell took?
@girasol911zoom He is in love with Phillip Morris. He's been interviewed while in prison because of the movie. He talked about Phillip Morris during the interview. This documentary keeps saying he's obsessed with Morris... and maybe he is. Obsessed AND in love.
@TVCoolStuff The film takes a more touching side to his story.. I would like to know how the book portrays him..
But, this documentary is making him sound like a freak and he's just escaping for the sake of it..
And, also saying he's obsessed.. But, I suppose back in that time, they would have called it obsession and not love because of the ignorance.. Even now, really..
Whatever happened to "if he did it for money, you cant arrest him. People who want money are the greatest americans of all" well, he doesnt run a company or have friends that do. I guess its wrong then....
He just should've played dead and stayed that way if he wanted to stay free. His only problem was that he didn't know when to quit. He's like a rock star that wont accept being old and over it.
Cobb didn't find traces of a white powder in his Russell's old cell! Russell had been out of that cell for weeks (in Texas no cell stays empty for more than a day)and any new self-respecting inmate would have cleaned that cell from top to bottom upon moving in.
Cobb is trying to give himself credit where none is due!
I love how in the reenactment the actor playing the malnourished and severely underweight Russell looks fit as a fiddle aside from the sallow complexion. When they cut to the shot of him shirtless on the bed looking at this records, the upper body looks so well developed that it could pass for a triathlete
@Dementedrox Exactly!. He's non violent and he committed ethical and financial crimes. He poses no physical danger to anyone. Nevertheless, he's now serving144 yr sentence and spends 23 hours each day in total isolation. Child murderers get less. He's serving the bruised egos of the judges, doctors, lawyers and FBI agents he embarrassed. Not the state. An intellectual genius is defined as a person with an IQ above 160. Einstein's IQ was only 5 points higher. Such a waste
The petition states that Steven isn't a violent person and the sentence of 100+ years in a maximum security jail looks more like an act of rage than real justice.
