While three fugitives have since been captured, seven remain on the run — and authorities warn they are armed, dangerous, and desperate.

What Happened: A Coordinated Escape Exploiting Security Failures

At approximately 12:23 a.m., surveillance footage shows the group of inmates removing a bolted-down sink and toilet unit in their shared cell. Behind it was a hole in the wall—possibly due to structural neglect—leading to a hidden maintenance corridor.

The inmates crawled through this passage, made their way to a rear loading dock, and scaled a perimeter fence using blankets and bedsheets to bypass razor wire. One inmate scrawled a mocking message at the escape point: “Too Easy LOL”.

Shockingly, the jailbreak went undetected for more than seven hours. A headcount at 8:30 a.m. revealed the breach. The single officer assigned to the pod had reportedly stepped away for a meal break during the critical window.

Authorities now believe the jailbreak may have been facilitated by staff negligence or direct involvement:

  • Three jail employees have been suspended pending internal review.

  • Defective locks, outdated surveillance, and weak protocols are under scrutiny.

  • A full audit of jail infrastructure and staffing has been launched.

Multiple law enforcement agencies — including the FBI, U.S. Marshals, Louisiana State Police, and New Orleans Police Department — are now working in tandem to track down the remaining fugitives.

Jail System Under Fire
