Stupid Criminal: A Man Got Caught Breaking Out of Jail, 48 Hours Before His Scheduled Release

Escaping from prison seems like a last-ditch effort to sniff freedom.  You wouldn’t try it if you had a chance to be released any time soon.  Right?

A man named Lucas Brown was caught escaping from a jail in Colorado last Thursday night.  He was only on the loose for 35 MINUTES.

And get this:  He was supposed to be released just TWO DAYS LATER.  Now that won’t be happening.

Lucas was working as a “kitchen trustee” and was cleaning up for the night.  He went out to take out the trash, and just ran off.

Here’s another twist:  He was previously caught escaping back in 2017, so he shouldn’t have qualified to be in a “trustee” position, with outdoor access.  He had the role for about a month, but didn’t try to make a run for it until last week.

Lucas was serving a 90 day-sentence.  There’s no word how much extra time is being tacked on due to the escape attempt.
