I hope they find him soon. :(

[Ranger Mom]

The article didn't give ANY description of him!! I certainly hope they have him surrounded where they think they do.

One of the comments at the bottom has a link to the picture. But yeah, wasn't too bright on the Chronicle's part. :doh:

[KTA]

That's good to hear!!

This may not be "PC"...but why in the heck would they have a 59 y/o woman on guard duty for a bunch of guys on work duty???

I'm sure it didn't take much to over power her, steal her car and then run over her with it!!!

:confused: :confused:

[RedWhiteBlue]

They should just execute him the way he killed the guard and not let him know when it is coming!!!!

WELL SHE HAD A GUN:p

[RedWhiteBlue]

Guards aren't allowed guns in prisons (they might hurt the prisoners).
I would much rather scrap with a 17 yr old lineman than some of the 59 year old women I know.....

A lot of good it did her

"They managed to overpower one of the correctional officers and took her weapon," said Jason Clark, a TDCJ spokesman.

They also stole a Huntsville city vehicle during their escape, Clark said.

"In the process of fleeing, they ran over the correctional officer," Clark said. "She died a short time later."

Especially after 85 months of working in a Huntsville prison.......

That's weird too!!

Why not just say 7 years....or 7 years and one month to be exact!!



I guess I have now had my job for a 188 months!!!

They sure are allowed to have them outside of the prison gates, I don't see how the perimeter guys didn't see this?

Maybe nobody liked her??:p :p



That was mean of me....I'm sorry!! Even if they hated her, she didn't deserve to die!!

[RedWhiteBlue]

I just said she had 85 months of service because that is what the article said- I can't even figure that to years, so it was easier just to quote it......

[RedWhiteBlue]

And because I am in the criminal justice field I can tell you that they don't have guns on the inside for that same reason- the prisoners could get them and then probably be very dangerous....

I know...I read the article too!!

I just added 12 on my adding machine and got 84 after 7 times.... :p :p

I was talking about the article when I said I thought it was weird that they had it down in months rather than years!!

APPERENTALY NIGHT STICKS CAN BE DANGEROUS TOO? OR FLASHLIGHT, OR W/E HER WEAPON WAS

[RedWhiteBlue]

In that situation, I think pretty much anything you can get your hands on can be justified.

word is she was on horseback. Don't know how they were able to escape in the vehicle.

[RedWhiteBlue]

Well, if she was on horseback, she may have been packing- not sure. Maybe a work truck or something. Our inmates have an old van they roll in.

Here's a pic of the second one they caught.

I just wonder about some of these people. Hope they're ready for lethal injection.


here's a link to the 400+ people executed since the death penalty was reinstated.

Interesting, even has their last statements.

[luvhoops34]

What's really sad is they hit her horse. I'm sure it broke it's legs.:(

Lethal injection is too good for these guys.
