  2. He was convicted in 2015 and is sentenced to life imprisonment with the possibility of parole after serving 26 years. The state DOC webpage for Lopez stays he is eligible for parole consideration in 2023. Simple math tells me he would have to be arrested in 1997 or 1998 to be eligible for parole in 2023. And he was not arrested in 97 or 98. The TV program about this case said he waited for 8 years in county jail waiting for his trial, which puts his time of arrest at around 2005 or 2006. In that case his parole eligibility date is still no earlier than 2028 or 2029. Do you know why he is eligible for parole so soonz.
