A gangster convicted for the 1980s murder of an NYPD parole officer, and connected to the death of a rookie officer, is asking for compassionate release from jail because the prison won't accommodate his diet and it's causing him stress. Lorenzo 'Fat Cat' Nichols, 63, is serving concurrent 25-years and 40-years to life sentences, but has asked a judge to release him on account of migraines he endures and the 'stress' of the prison lifestyle, .'Although I try to stay strong, the stress is weighting me down, and has raised my blood pressure,' the drug lord said in a letter to Brooklyn Federal Court Judge Edward Korman.
