He must have been charged with countless armed robberies but appeared to serve only about 2 years before being released. Also I thought there was a 3 strike rule over there where you get life if you’re charged with the same offence 3 times?
shareI made a couple of assumptions:
1. They only charged him with the one where "somebody talked." Possibly the Danny Glover character, as he was waiting at Forest's home. They had no proof for the others.
2. He could afford a great attorney.
3. They went easier on him due to age.
4. Maybe HE talked about something... another person involved, or the location of the money to make partial restitution.
5. Poetic license. ("licence" if you're in the UK)
6. At least 5 years had passed.
I was wondering the same thing. Didn't they count like 93 robberies??
