This was part of the plea agreement when he pled guilty - that, as long as he was a model prisoner, the DA would support him at parole time. But he had only served five of this 10-20 year term in May of 2011, and his request was denied. He won't be up for parole again until he has served another five years, which will be a total of 10. And that will be in 2016. He will be 56 years old.
