James Hydrick, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Hydrick ,
Hydrick was born in South Carolina to a 30-year-old father and teenage mother. His father was allegedly abusive.[3] In 1989, he told an interviewer that he started learning karate at age six to protect himself from his father after seeing one of his brothers beaten to death. He and his other siblings later lived in a series of foster homes and orphanages.[4]
Hydrick was convicted of kidnapping and torture in 1977, and was imprisoned.[5] He escaped three times: he allegedly kicked through a concrete wall in a Georgia jail, broke through gates at a South Carolina prison, and finally, in 1982, he pole-vaulted over a fence at a state prison in Utah.[6]
Wanted on an outstanding warrant, Hydrick was apprehended after police saw him discussing psychic powers on the Sally Jessy Raphael talk show.[6] In 1989, Hydrick was sentenced to 17 years for molesting five boys in Huntington Beach, California.[8] After serving his sentence, he was remanded to Atascadero State Hospital for treatment under the state's sexually violent predator law. Psychologist Jesus Padilla described Hydrick as "an extremely difficult patient" who suffers from pedophilia, paraphilia, and antisocial personality disorder.[13] Hydrick petitioned for release in May 2013, but a trial resulted in a hung jury.[5] As of 2013, he is housed at the Coalinga State Hospital.
You can actually call the prison and talk to him.
