   This is what Google Images come with for 'Prisoner' - Not Edward Donnel Hendricks

A couple of days ago, the trial started for a man who was accused of robbing a poker game in San Antonio. This man, Edward Donnel Hendricks decided to  defend himself, and it turns out this probably was not the greatest idea in the world. The parolee will land up with a sentence of three 99 year sentences for his role in the poker related robbery.

Its seem the clever criminal will have to serve at least 30 years of his aggravated robbery sentences before he will be able to be eligible for parole. The jurors took just under an hour to determine for the juror to determine the sentences and only 10 minutes for the panel to decide his guilty status.

Hendricks explained “I’m in way over my head,” as sentence was passed down on the convict. He also apologized to jurors, saying he was “one of the few convicted felons who really do have the desire to become a productive member of society.”

“No one was hurt physically in the crime. Everybody got their property back,” he said. “I'm not as bad as I am being painted. I have a conscience, and I know it's hard for you to believe it, but I am good.”

This from a man who landed up robbing a poker game, wielding a shotgun and a revolver in a house with children in it.
