    Another inmate afraid to make it on the outside supporting himself. Rather return and live on the taxpayers’ backs.

    We keep hearing about these easy escapes. One day someone is going to be hurt or killed by one of the persons escaping. Please fix the incarceration system.

    Make them work on the fishing boats. Drop them off at the boat in the morning & pick them up when the boats come back in.
