    Just two weeks? Probably not a surprise with that crappy attempt at changing appearance. Either way he’s a D-tier fugitive at best, you shouldn’t even try if you’re gonna put up rookie numbers like that.

      Like escape room, someone should provide a service where they LARP fugitives. See who can get the best score.

      That, and don’t hang around nine feet from where they had you locked up. If I had two weeks to work with, I’d be in fuckin’ Timbiktu by now.

          Well, yes and no. The ubiquity of long distance transportation means that a suitably creative and desperate individual could be hundreds of miles away by sunrise without alerting anybody. Certainly not clear Customs and Immigration anywhere, but you could certainly slip the tiny net that the police appeared to employ here. Sure, you’ll be on a zillion cameras if you appear anywhere in public, but who’s looking at them and more importantly, where?

          Chester County prison is not exactly in an exceptionally remote location. And how long was this clown gone before anyone confirmed he was missing? It’d be trivial for anyone with sufficient creativity to hop in the back of a passing unsecured semi, jump on a freight train, hell – steal a canoe and float down the Brandywine. Anything’s better than skulking around in people’s back yards for two weeks and getting spotted repeatedly.

          The prisoner’s MO seemed to be trying to hole up and hide in the woods, given that’s what it was reported he did when he escaped confinement earlier as well. Staying put like that is probably not a smart move.
