One more note:
More of Paul Calvo's story will be posted as part of the podcast State of the Human, from the Stanford Storytelling Project, in the coming weeks. In that episode, Paul goes deeper into how he landed in prison, how he fought his case, and then jumped to be an undergrad in EE at Stanford, and his thoughts about what it means to live in both worlds.
