I agree with you, but I think after 36 years “attempted shoplifting” should probably have been minor enough to get her off a database. I guess government really throws nothing but liberty away.
She won’t be charged for the crime that got her in prison in the first place. She’ll be charged, at the beginning, with this:
750.193 Breaking prison, ...
Sec. 193.
(1) A person imprisoned in a prison of this state who breaks prison and escapes, ..., is guilty of a felony, punishable by further imprisonment for not more than 5 years. The term of the further imprisonment shall be served after the termination, pursuant to law, of the sentence or sentences then being served. A prisoner who breaks prison, ... shall be charged with that offense and tried in the courts of the county in which the prison or penal facility to which the prisoner was committed or transferred is located at the time of the breaking, escape, or attempt to break or escape.
