IT appears in my opinion that with the proper ID same as the border issues we had with passports any inmate serving a life sentence can possibly impersonate an inmate being released years early than him/her through a little trickery, and then walk out the front gate a free citizen impersonation that other person evident through Sykes who has successfully preformed this escape twice, and the ones that have not be exposed.
