Bikini-clad pin-ups cover old school jailbreak Two inmates of New Jersey's Union County jail last Saturday night pulled off a classic old school jailbreak with the help of a couple of dummies and some strategically-placed, bikini-clad pin-ups, CNN reports. Otis Blunt and Jose Espinosa Otis Blunt, (pictured left), and Jose Espinosa (right) did a bunk from the facility's " …
I guess they heard the death penalty was banned in NJ and decided hey why not make a break for it? What's the worst they are going to do to me?
On a side note the reason Paris is with us is to remind us there are those out there who are not blessed with beauty. . . *shudders and grabs some Noxema*
If making a hole and slipping out is "old school", what would constitute the "hip" way to break out of prison? Does it involve cement busting L4Z0Rs, the clever hiding of mobiles in every available orifice, and maybe also extremely shaky hand-camera? We all know Paris would possibly just strangle the wardens with her thong, but she is hardly a professional prison hipster.
Well, if they did have the death penalty in NJ, they wouldn't put it to work on a jailbreak unless they killed guards getting out, would they. And if they were already under murder rap and looking to be offed by government, what do they have to lose? Killed twice as much? Tortured to death? The Comfy Pillow???
The death penalty is showing that sometimes murder is valid, which makes it harder to justify the death penalty for it. And if you get it wrong, you can't unkill them, so your level of proof has to be "certain" rather than "nearly certain", so in cases where the evidence is thin, you're letting a murderer go free rather than risk a mistake. If you incarcerate them, if more evidence to exonerate them comes forward, you can reverse the decision.
And theres me thinking Prison Break was off hiatus. haha
Im suprised cons could get away using well-known tactics taken straight from 'Escape from Alcatraz' and 'The Shawshank Redeption'.
Surely these dramatised escapes are supposed to be fictional, and not actually possible?!?
All we need now is My Cousin Vinny, and we're set!!
So, maps and charts are allowed then? What about pictures from newspapers rather than magazines? Cue a delige of requests for the WSJ on the cellblocks... Of course, it sounds like a small thing to deny, but I guess if the prisoners have few freedoms, removing another will generate quite a lot of disquiet.
Would the Daily Mail reader at the back there please sit down and stop shouting "They're supposed to have few freedoms, they're in prison"? Thanks.
"barred inmates from pinning up pictures from magazines on their cell walls"
Would it be so hard to look behind the posters during cell inspections? Instead let's put a niggling ban on the prisoners personalising their cell, that'll deter them from planning to escape from it all right.
What the hell am I doing, I'm expressing astonishment that prison officers - American prison officers at that - could be petty and small-minded.
"For the record, 32-year-old Blunt was "awaiting trial on charges of robbery and weapons offenses", while alleged gang member Espinosa was "awaiting sentencing after pleading guilty to manslaughter in a 2005 drive-by shooting". ®"
So none of these guys were longtime inmates who could have been working on these rocks for years like in "Shankshaw redemption".
Points to some pretty shoddy workmanship on the prison buildings.
Also makes you wonder why the rest of the inmates haven't dug their way out of there a long time ago.
But perhaps they have - only they used cleverly designed animated dolls to cover their tracks whereas these newcommers only had time to order the cheap dolls for their beds.
Ok, so they covered the holes with pin ups.. what about THE OTHER SIDE??? Did nobody notice the sodding great gaping holes in the outside wall??
And as already pointed out, that would have been them outside the building but how did they get over the outside wall? Helicopter? Jetpac? Mario style double jump?
