THERE'S A KILLER ON THE ROAD & OTHER PRISON ESCAPES

[HairOfTheDog]

HIGH SCHOOL TRIPLE-MURDERER BREAKS FREE



Remember this remorseless little piece of shit, ^ TJ Lane -- wearing his "KILLER" t-shirt and flipping off the court at his trial for killing three fellow high school students in Ohio? The convicted murderer is serving three life sentences in Lima, Ohio.

Well, he and two other inmates escaped the medium-security Allen Oakwood Correctional Institution in Lima, Ohio early yesterday evening. Ohio police alerted residences, put protection on the homes of his victims' families, and put all officers and a helicopter on the hunt.

Lane was recaptured near the prison and returned to custody this morning. The other two escapees are also back in custody.

I'd like to know how a triple murderer like Lane and his inmate buddies (one of the other escapees was convicted of murdering a 5-year-old and the other for assault and robbery) had an opportunity to break free in the first place. Waiting for those details. These guys should be in hard-core max security prisons, IMO.

ETA: This may partially explain how the criminals found an opportunity to pull a runner: The Allen Oakwood Correctional Institution houses about 1,600 inmates guarded by 257 security personnel. A Correctional Institution Inspection Committee report in April said the facility was over capacity by 217 inmates. In addition, the number of inmate assaults on staff increased by 60.7% last year compared with 2012.
