Power tools make a very loud noise, tremendous vibrations, cutting through steel and concrete. How on earth could they evade detection? You talk about an inside job...
I read this morning that they believe that the escapees were helped by a female employee who had a crush on one of them (Matt, who the cops described as a “ladies man”) and that the power tools were obtained from contractor worksites that were inside the walls because of a major construction job that was being carried out at the prison.
It obviously took a lot of advance planning and outside assistance, probably even more than that one female employee could have provided, so I guess we’re just at the start of this story.
Both of these men are cold blooded killers. One emptied a gun into a deputy killing him with his own gun, just a few miles down the road from me. The second man killed three people, dismembering one. I pray they are apprehended without any lives lost. Suicide by cop works, though.
And an affirmative action, politically correct female guard.
I read the ‘Rat lib governor Cuomo visited the prison yesterday and then set up a $100k reward for these two. You know if libs were so concerned about people escaping justice, why don’t they start with the Clintons?
They keep mentioning “drills” in all these stories. Looking at those openings cut behind the bunks, and the one in the large pipe, those weren’t made with any drill, even a drill with a cutting bit. More likely they used a small cordless circular saw with a diamond blade. I’m anxious to find out how they were able to overcome the noise problem from whatever they were using.
They came up out of a manhole. I wonder if this was done in the night or the day? Someone must’ve seen them.
How on earth did they know to follow that route and that it would lead to an opening of any kind at all?
Did they hide the hole behind a poster of Rita Hayworth?
If there’s any truth to this at all, the only “power tool” that makes sense in this circumstance is an oxyacetylene torch.
