Joran van der Sloot should be preparing to meet his maker, says ex-con and prison expert Larry Levine. The founder of Wall Street Prison Consultants believes Stephany Flores' confessed killer "doesn't have much time left" in Lima's notorious Miguel Castro Castro Prison.
Appearing on the CBS Early Show, Levine said if he could give van der Sloot advice it would be, "I'd tell him, 'you're not going to make it. What you need to do is pray because someone's gonna kill ya, and just enjoy the rest of the time you have on earth'.
"You know, that's a dangerous place," Levine says of Castro Castro Prison. "You've got murderers there, terrorists there. You've got bad people. And the problem he's facing is that the father of Stephany is a prominent person and this is an impoverished prison. You pay off the right people, ya know, someone will stick a knife in the guy."
