He arrived in California this past week with the express purpose of traveling to Corcoran to visit with Charlie who is to celebrate his eightieth birthday this week (November 11 or November 12, depending on who you believe).
On facebook this morning, Ben posted the following:
"Charlie is officially in the hospital day #3. Confirmed by guards at
visitation check in. Could not get any additional to (sic)
