If those "personal things" are owned by the individual and can be defined as lawful items there are not laws forbidding such action. For example, the individual might wish to sell his or her personal belongings to pay legal expenses.

Why are some people incarcerated for longer than they have left to live?

When a person is incarcerated for a number of years easily exceeding their life expectancy (for example, sentenced to 500 years in prison), this typically meant that the person was convicted of many crimes, but none of those crimes were extreme enough to warrant life in prison or the death penalty, thus compounding the amount of years he/she must spend in prison. While being incarcerated for say, 500 years is effectively life in prison, the sentence is just part of legal proceedings.


Can a criminal in prison be convicted of murder if already in prison for murder if he kills in the prison?

Yes the person can. The person convicted of the first murder is sentenced to jail time then that murder is done with. If while incarcerated and another murder is occurred then the subject will be go to trial for murder again but not the same person. You are thinking of double jeopardy. This only occurs after someone is tried and found not guilty. At that point the subject can run outside and say he did it with out being able to be tried again.
