Expert emphasizes failures that lead to prison

Six of the ten inmates that fled a prison of New Orleans on Tuesday, with the officials offering a reward of 20,000 US dollars for information on any escape.

Michael Harrigan, a retired FBI agent and partner of the Pax group, said that the refugees were generally caught within a week. However, this case is far more complex than typical jailbreaks.

“Time offers the possibility of topics that escape to flee larger, remote places. So it depends on whether these people had contacts outside the state or outside the community, whether they could move to a remote place and possibly remain in people who have still not identified law enforcement,” said Harrigan.

Officials stated that it took eight hours for law enforcement to be informed about the jailbreak early Friday. Harrigan noticed that a variety of errors contributed to the occurrence of such an escape.

“In order for a correctional facility to be injured from the inside, you have a door that is pulled off to flee a hole in the wall to the hole, to go to a charging point where surveillance cameras are active and then break the ascent over a fence and flow into the area,” he said. “There are a large number of mistakes here. And I think the sheriff took on a certain responsibility at the beginning when she immediately announced that here could come inside.”

The jailbreak emphasizes possible below prison. Officials found that a guard got food at the time of the incident, and nobody was able to monitor while this person was gone.

“They were 40% understaffed there, which is significant,” said Harrigan. “Overall, the prison occupation is a difficult profession. It is probably one of the most difficult professions in the field of law enforcement in the prison chain, from the arrest to the detention. It is a tough order and it is difficult to fill these places, but here you have the potential that you have the actual building.

Harrigan added that he would not be surprised to find out that the occupants had help from the facility.

“There is always the opportunity to escape, especially if someone is detained and they have nothing but time in their hands,” he said. “You can look at processes, you could take a look at rhythms, the guards, look at the facilities, look at the fine points of the locks and look for defects in the structure.

“The sheriff, who appeared immediately and said that she believed that there could be no escape without in -depth help, gives us the strong indication that you know that someone is assisted here because it is only personal that I could not see many correctional facilities in which you could be injured and undiscovered for eight hours, especially for a large group of people.”
