Gallegos warned Swapp and his family in attendance that if he were to be released, "It's going to take a tremendous effort to get Addam back into society."
He said he would likely also recommend continuing mental health treatment once Swapp is released, particularly for treatment of radical theories and beliefs.
"Addam, whatever happens in your life, you do not want to start up with those type of deep held and radical thoughts. Because Addam, I'm here to tell you, if that starts again, you will be remembered as the guy from 1988," he said.
Swapp said he would likely move back to the Fairview area where he still has many family members.
A decision by the full parole board on Swapp's release is expected in the coming weeks.

I believe in second chances.
To Zadruga Guy. You can homeschool your kids without harrasment from the state of Utah because of the stand that John Singer made.
What a blast from the past! Please keep him in there. No reason for him to see the light of day again.
