In 1974, Jack Unterweger was in prison for murder. However, during his prison stint, he became somewhat famous for writing poems, short stories and an autobiography, titled Purgatory or The Trip to Prison – Report of a Guilty Man. His autobiography would even become required reading in some schools. By 1985, several prominent figures in Austrian journalism and writing industries saw this as an example of a reformed prisoner, and started campaigning for his early release. After he was released in 1990, he became a minor celebrity, even hosting TV shows about criminal rehabilitation. But not long after this,he couldn’t control the urge to kill again.
