Paul Geidel
Paul Geidel Jr (April 21, 1894 – May 1, 1987) was the longest-serving American prison inmate whose sentence ended with his release. After being convicted of second-degree murder in 1911, Geidel served 68 years and 245 days in various New York state prisons. He was released on May 7, 1980, at the age of 86 and his record was listed in Guinness World Records
==Early life and murder==
Born in Hartford, Connecticut, to an alcoholic saloon keeper Paul Geidel Sr, (died 1900) who died when Geidel was 5, the boy spent much of his childhood in an orphanage. He dropped out of school at the age of 14 and worked in a series of menial jobs in Hartford and New York City hotels.
On July 26, 1911, Geidel – 17 years old at the time – decided to rob 73-year-old William H. Jackson, a wealthy broker, who was a guest at the Iroquois Hotel on West 44th Street in New York City where Geidel was working as a bellhop. Geidel sneaked into Jackson's room, and suffocated him to death with a rag filled with chloroform. Geidel only made off with a few dollars.
Two days later, Geidel was arrested. He was subsequently convicted of second-degree murder and sent to prison for 20 years to life.
