Michael Devlin Moved
by Lupe Lasano in news
Michael Devlin has been moved to a prison in northwest Missouri in order to begin serving his sentence of 74 consecutive life sentences.
Michael Devlin, 42, had been under evaluation at a prison intake center in St. Joseph since October, when he pleaded guilty in three counties and in federal court in the 2002 abduction of then-11-year-old Shawn Hornbeck and the January 2007 abduction of 13-year-old Ben Ownby.
Both boys, from different parts of rural eastern Missouri, were found four days after Ben's abduction at Devlin's apartment in the St. Louis County town of Kirkwood.
Since his arrest on Jan. 12, 2007, Devlin has been segregated from other inmates, first at county jails in Franklin and St. Louis counties, and in St. Joseph since his guilty pleas. Now that he's moved to the maximum-security prison in Cameron, about 50 miles north of Kansas City, he will almost always be alone.
Lloyd Bailey, an uncle of a victim said he wished that Devlin wasn't being protected from other prisoners. He said, "He should be in the general population. Why should he be subject to anything different than other sexual predators? Why should they make stipulations for him?"
