Graduating summa cum laude from the University of Houston he worked as a licensed plumber in two states and with a Secret Security clearance on military bases. His marriage solemnized in the Salt Lake Temple produced one son. The American Correctional Association published an article of his on sex offender treatment in a criminal justice textbook.
Twice put in prison, Warren first received a 99 year sentence for burglary from a Dallas jury, overturned by the Texas Supreme Court due to prosecutor misconduct. After seeing the state's antics, the witness refused to testify again and told prosecutors to go to hell. Warren, however, spent eight years in the Department of Corrections without rehabilitation or a diagnosis of his behavior problems.
The second incarceration: a police chief promised on videotape emphasis on reformation and named the state school doctors. Relying on promises, Warren pled no contest to everything prosecutors filed. The judge labelled him a 'career criminal' and 'worst offender' although he did not come up to average offender criteria. There was not so much as a scratch or a dirty word. The judge made up a state record 69 year sentence, cute in media headlines for a sex offender. Appeal judges ignored his exceptional rehabilitation potential, major mental illness, and post-traumatic stress disorder, not just from Vietnam, but from severe childhood abuse, as they focused on the type of crime. The case and videotape went all the way to the US Supreme Court.
After 26 more years in prison, Warren came up for parole. The Board in the hearing said all he had to do was retake the sex offender school he had graduated from 21 years earlier. Three hours later, a smirking parole officer handed him the Board's official ten year sentence.visualizza meno
