Breaking Rico's own rule

The Daily News has a column by Kenneth Lovett about the guy who shot John Lennon. (And running his photo is as close as Rico is going to get to mentioning the guy's name; having taken an oath to never dignify his act with a mention of who did it, this is as close as the fuck is going to get to fame in this blog.)
The man who killed John Lennon says he's sorry he shot the legendary rocker - but disputed media reports on how the murder went down. "I shot him in the back," (the convicted shooter) told a two-person Parole Board panel last week during a hearing, before being denied release for a fifth time. He denied longstanding media accounts that he called out to Lennon as he and his wife, Yoko Ono, returned to their Dakota building apartment after a late-night recording session... Serving a twenty-year-to-life sentence at the upstate Attica Correctional Facility for the 1980 murder, he said he's not the same man today... Ono asked the board to deny him parole. The board agreed, saying his release would "not be compatible with the welfare of society at large".
Rico says he's still surprised (and disappointed) someone inside hasn't whacked the nameless guy...
