On July 12, 1978, Henry Hill was granted an early parole for being a model prisoner. According to the report of the Bureau of Prisons, he had been the ideal inmate. He had availed himself of the prison’s self-improvement and educational programs. He had maintained a clear-conduct record throughout his entire incarceration.”
Hill was a smart man he knew everything he needed to know about prisons back during the time he spent. Each class you took or program offered would take time off, and for Henry that was nothing short of what had to be done. Many of the other inmates would just whittle away the days till they would be released, but Henry wasn’t that type of guy he was smart. Another thing he pulled off was having Karen (his wife) smuggle things in that Henry could sell to other inmates: From booze to food, and marijuana to razor blades.
Selling these things wasn’t in any way for him though; it was his only option to help support his family. In my opinion Henry wasn’t quite as bad as the other guys in the mafia. Yea he had his share of injustice, but compared to the others he seemed to be quite an uprising person.
“Of course the prison officials had no way of knowing how expertly Henry had manipulated and misued their system. Nor did they know that his new job was essentially a no-show affair that had been arranged for him by Paul Vario.”

It is so weird that this is a true story. I’ve read your other posts and it is hard to imagine that some people actually live that kind of life. Having to watch out, kill people, and create elaborate plans. I would be terrified of getting whacked every single day.
