2 murderers escape US prison in guard uniforms
Published in Saudi Press Agency on 30 - 05 - 2009


Two convicted murderers put on
corrections-officer uniforms and walked out of an Arkansas
prison during a shift change, officials said Saturday as
they searched for the men, according to AP.
Jeffrey Grinder, 32, and Calvin Adams, 39, escaped Friday
evening from the Cummins Unit prison in Grady more than
three hours before officials realized they were missing,
corrections department spokeswoman Dina Tyler said.
Both men were serving life sentences without the
possibility of parole at the prison about 60 miles (100
kilometers) southeast of Little Rock.
The guard uniforms the inmates put on are made in the
prison. Video surveillance shows the men put them on in the
prison library after the 6 p.m. headcount and walked out of
the prison during a shift change less than 20 minutes
later, Tyler said.
Prison officials are investigating whether all policies
and procedures were followed.
«Someone should have laid eyes on them. That's one of the
things we're looking at: How exactly did they get out
without someone challenging them?» Tyler said.
Grinder and Adams drove away in a car that had been left
for them. Officials realized the men were missing after
coming up short during the 10 p.m. inmate headcount, Tyler
said.
Grinder was convicted of capital murder in 2004, and Adams
was convicted of capital murder in 1995.
Corrections officials are trying to develop leads on where
the men are and hoping someone will spot them.
