Here’s another thought, and I’m not saying this is the case here, but sometimes, some who have spent extended time in prison, have a hard time adjusting to the outside (obviously), and actually sometimes, consciously or subconsciously, want to go back because they feel like that’s where they belong, the structure, etc. They can’t make it on the outside. Also, sometimes, they may again consciously or subconsciously, attempt to go back, feel that they belong there, to protect themselves (and/or others) from themselves. I’ve heard some some ex-cons talking about this sort of thing. Just thinking about some thoughts wrt to intentional or unintentional stupidity, but perhaps this latest act is strictly a matter of poor impulse control and opportunistic predation, with no subconscious or conscious intent to get caught. Most likely the latter, but who knows. He refers to his solitude a lot. He probably feels like he can relate to others in prison.
