Amit Livingston has a new home: A prison cell - Monitor

Livingston, 47, has arrived at TDCJ’s diagnostic intake facility at the system’s Byrd Unit, 1 mile north of downtown Huntsville, in east Texas. On the lam for seven years until his arrest May 6, 2014, in India, Livingston was extradited to the United States on July 14. He has begun to serve the 23-year sentence former 404th state District Judge Abel C. Limas leveled against him in... The victim and Livingston, who lived in Rockport at the time, met in the summer of 2005 through the Internet. 30, 2005, Livingston took the victim, 31, to South Padre Island. Limas gave him a 60-day pass to get his affairs in order without opposition from then-Cameron County District Attorney Armando R. Villalobos and others. Subsequently, Limas and Villalobos were convicted of public corruption charges in connection with the Livingston case and other crimes. Shortly after sentencing, the convicted murderer and his parents participated in a two-day clinic/workshop in Huntsville where the Texas prison is based. The clinic’s aim was to facilitate his entry into the prison system so he could adapt to time behind bars. Source: www.themonitor.com
