THERE'S A KILLER ON THE ROAD & OTHER PRISON ESCAPES
They could be, Mags. I hope not. They seem to have planned carefully. Hopefully that included a get-away person rather than invading a home.

Here's an update:

There was a fight inside the facility about 8 p.m. that may have been part of the escape plan, sheriff’s officials said. The fight delayed the nighttime headcount, which normally takes place at that hour.

The inmates were able to get past security points in at least three areas, accessing the jail's plumbing system, apparently using tools to cut through metal bars and bedsheets to descend at least four stories to reach the ground, authorities said. How they got those tools and how they went undetected is still unknown.

"I've been in law enforcement for 37 years, always working for sheriff's departments that manage jails. And escapes do occur from time to time," Sheriff Sandra Hutchens said today. "We try and limit that. We learn from the mistakes. I can tell you that this is a very sophisticated-looking operation. People in jail have a lot of time to sit around and think about ways to defeat our systems."

The Men's Central Jail houses more than 900 inmates. About 70% to 80% of the inmates are felons, with more than 384 in custody for murder, attempted murder and other serious, violent crimes, Hutchens said.

The jail, built in 1968, is a hulking concrete compound in Santa Ana's civic center, its sheer concrete walls rising several stories. The roof is lined with loops of barbed wire.


One factor in the escape, Hutchens said, is the age and layout of the jail. The central jail is an older "linear" facility, designed in a way that inmates are able to move through different areas throughout the day.
