Parole
Bill Glass, Roger Staubach, and McCoy McLemore, world champion athletes and local businessmen, visited the Florida State prison in 1974. Murphy was impressed by these visitors and decided to change his life. At that time, Murphy's earliest parole date was November 2225. Murphy began participating in the prison chaplaincy program, leading Bible studies, and mentoring other men in prison. The Florida Parole Board decided to release Murphy on "parole with lifetime monitoring" in 1986.
