The highly-educated but infamous Richard Loeb (of Leopold and Loeb) received life in prison for his crime, but was stabbed to death a few years later by another inmate while the two were in one of the prison showers. (I'll leave further picturing of the exact circumstances to the imagination, but one reporter led off his story on Loeb's death by noting, "Despite his erudition, Richard Loeb today ended his sentence with a proposition.")
