Pennsylvania has put more juveniles behind bars for life than anywhere else in the country. And, of those people, Joe Ligon has the tragic distinction of being the oldest and longest-serving juvenile lifer in the country. He was recently released from a Pennsylvania prison after 68 years. "CBS This Morning: Saturday" co-host Michelle Miller spoke with Ligon in his first U.S. television interview since his release.

@@deadprank947 , What do you think the price of a horrific crime like this should be? Repentance and change shouldn’t absolve you from your crimes. If the purpose of prisons was to rehabilitate people, why would one of the sentencing be life in prison? Some people do not deserve rehabilitation when they do something unforgiving like taking an innocent life or something horrific like rape. Let’s take the golden state killer as an example. He has grown old and perhaps has had time to change his ways after his crime spree, should he be given a second chance just because he has become a frail old man who has changed his ways and stop committing crimes? This person’s mindset isn’t why criminals return to crime. A person will return to crime because they don’t like to work hard, or because they are sick and twisted individuals who get off on harming others. I think a life sentence is a fitting punishment for someone who had an intention to take the life of an innocent person.

He wasted his own life due to his own actions. The point of prison is not to rehabilitate. The point of being sentenced to prison is to take away that which is most precious, the only thing anyone truly has in this life...time. Rehabilitation is secondary to punishment.

Former CO here. When I was at the facility, my favorite block to work was the “isolation unit” reserved for those who committed the most heinous crimes. It was basically all former death row guys. I used to greatly enjoy talking with this one inmate who had been incarcerated since the early 90s. It was like having a conversation with a living time capsule from my childhood. This man would speak with me about stores, businesses, and places that had closed 20+ years ago - but in the present tense. He never used a “car phone” or “the internets.” I would absolutely love to speak with joe or just walk around Philly with him for a day!

This is true for too many people in prison, many of whom were significantly traumatized as little ones. Now, I'm not saying predators should ever be released, but statistics show that 40% of the US and UK prison population are people with Borderline Personality Disorder and those are people who NEED intensive therapy, not prison. PTSD in adulthood will turn your life upside down, so imagine what it does to a child's developing brain. So glad you are helping others. People NEED to know they can get out and, with some patience and perseverance, get back to living a productive life.

This may sound weird, but I bet mentally he's still a teenager. I got locked up at 18 and did 6 years in prison, and although my physical age was 24, mentally I was not. I had never paid rent, never paid a water bill or electric bill, never had taken care of a child, never even had much of a real job. Basically, I didn't know what it meant to be an adult or even really how to act like an adult. I knew how to survive in prison, and that was it. Responsibility I knew nothing about. So I can't imagine being incarcerated at an even younger age and then being locked up for so long.

I know a guy, was in Army, went in at 20 yr old, protecting his son's mother & their baby son from gangsters, got out at 36 yrs old, disabled from injuries sustained in the pen. Two months out, they lost his son, before he got to meet him. When he went inside we had beepers, cassette tapes and landline phones. When he got out we had smart phones, Wi-Fi, internet, debit cards and blue tooth. He's still lost. Says he feels like the caveman in the film Encino Man that was frozen and thawed after the world changed completely. He says people are way more rude, disrespectful, antisocial and narcissistic than they were in the late 90s before he went away. He says even children & teenagers no longer smile. Just look jaded before they're even adults. He says it's weird how women are covered in tattoos, like prison gangsters, and so many females wear bright color hair. For him it's like the twilight zone and he's still literally stuck in 98. He even looks young, like he physically didn't age, and can't accept he lost his youth. Women his age look old and are burnt out, jaded, bitter. No longer interested in romance. But he's too old for 24 yr old women and has zero in common with their generation. Even though they think he's their age by his appearance. He's lost. Time forgot him. He often talks about the 90s & 80s like we're still in it. . He still can't believe Burger King stopped the 'have it your way' policy. And he can't believe bottle water is so expensive! He's frozen in time. He isolates mostly and stays depressed. He often says he wants to go see his son, but his son is gone, he has no son anymore. Also, he still acts & talks like he's still in the Army. He was active duty when he got arrested.
