Schochenmeier in prison?!

Working on a new map of our ancestors, I've stumbled upon a very interesting person:

Ernest F. Schochenmeier 

He can be found in the U.S. Census from 1940 where you may read that he was a white man of 85 years old (born in 1855 in Germany!) and being at the moment of Census in PRISON !!!


The address is Ward 13, Utica, Utica City, Oneida, New York, United States
 
Perhaps, it looked like that:


I have no idea who he could be...

 It seems to be that he belongs to the generation of Michael (1859) and Jacob (1861).

When did he come to the New World? Did he have any children?

No answers, only questions... I have never met any Ernest on FamilySearch or Ancestry.

Very strange case...
