The suppression opinion records arrest after 12:10 a.m. on April 22 and placement in the Abilene county jail. Continued imprisonment is separately documented in the 1995 detention and prison-visitation opinions. The preceding voluntary interview is not used as admission. The official BOP register 08157-031 presently lists Florence ADMAX and LIFE with no actual release date. The Sixth Circuit opinion independently confirms the life sentence. No unsupported birth or exact sentencing date is supplied.
