   ...months along,I finally noticed my [sic] homophony here...   
   that should be,"the REASON Bourque killed the 4-year-old"...   
   anyway,the Wikipedes have moved him up to the right place   
   on the chart,as he approaches the 69th anniversary of his   
   December 1955 incarceration.   
      
   In second place among living prisoners (starting sentence   
   three Decembers later) is Kenneth Nicely,convicted in Arkansas   
   for killing a police officer,something he could hardly have   
   done "nicely".
