description: "Eleuterio Sánchez Rodríguez, known as El Lute, was at one time listed as Spain's \"Most Wanted\" criminal and later became a published writer. He was a legendary Spanish outlaw who escaped several times from prison after being convicted at age 23 of murder and sentenced to 30 years. He was only 19 and was sentenced to die. While in prison, he learned to read, earned a law degree, and became a writer, continuing to protest his innocence of the charges. He was pardoned and released on June 20, 1981, at the age of 39."
