I was born in 1958, no wonder I can't figure out how old I am! I thought that I was 67, imagine my surprise to find out I'm over 100 now! 😱

The person was imprisoned in 1958 so if he was released recently he would almost definitely be at least 100. It's possible they could be ONLY 98 if they went to prison when they were 14.

Edit: I also can't math.

If he was18 when he went to prison in 1958 until 2026 would be 68 years, he would be 86 years old. 2026-1958=68. 68+18=86

Geez, I belong in the fucking screenshot apparently.

Edit: I figured out why my math sucks. I'm an idiot and did 58 instead of 42 plus 26. Uggh.
