It’s like the car chases that are so common in LA. After slashing up and down a handful of freeways and swerving around a couple of counties with a dozen patrol cars and 3 or 4 helicopters following them, they seem to always go home and try to hide in the backyard.
Fascinating statistics and a timely post. I’ve been reading “Doing Time”—a compilation of award-winning stories and poetry written behind bars. I’m baffled by the amount of prisoners the U.S. keeps, and the repercussions.
Would you try to escape? Seems like a great blog topic…

Wandering out of unlocked prison doors seems to be popular in my state. (And going to grandma’s where they are caught when their absence is noticed.)
