Harvey Guillén

Eventually, they grant him a special needs parole.

Stevens transferred to a hospice facility in San Antonio to die.

But Stephen's never felt more alive.

He places a phone call to the hospice facility from the hospice facility.

He impersonates a doctor and says he's recruiting patients for a new experimental AIDS treatment.

Stephen Russell just happens to qualify for the trial.

The hospice staff, wanting to believe there's something that might help, release Stephen into the care of this non-existent doctor.

On Friday, March 13th, 1998, Stephen walks out of hospice.

Okay, so I need to bring up a really weird detail in all of this.

Stephen's story is already bizarre enough, but there's this pattern that keeps showing up.

And once you notice it, you can't unsee it.

Friday the 13th.

For most people, Friday the 13th means bad luck.

For Stephen, it's become his personal lottery day because every time he escapes, it's Friday the 13th.

He walked out of the jail with a walkie-talkie and a tie-dye shirt on Friday, May 13th, 1992.

He strolled out of prison in magic marker scrubs on Friday, December 13, 1996.

And now this.

Three escapes, three Friday the 13s.

At some point, you have to wonder if he's just really good at planning or if the universe has a twisted sense of humor.

Anyway, Steven wants to make it look like the experimental treatment didn't work, that he died in hospice.
