@@evanmed301 Opinions Vary This was almost COMEDY. But he was a convicted murderer. The community is lucky HE has been taken back into custody. Actually he was very bold. Fearless in my opinion.
Thanks to the citizens who reported all the sightings, all the Law enforcement officers who worked on this case to keep people as safe as possible. Thankfully there was no serious injuries that I have heard about and the suspected criminal is going back to prison.
You are so right! Please secure the prison!

So the private prison he escaped from will pay for all the expenses associated with his capture right?
The justified rant about how much money was spent because they didn't secure the exercise yard. But they need to secure prisoners after trial before transfer to maximum security. The guy should never happen let into the exercise yard or even be unshackled until checked in to maximum security prison.

Thanks Fox 29 for devoting Chris O'Connell to coverage. We live inside the Longwood perimeter and REALLY APPRECIATE Chris's coverage. He kept us aware.
Glad they caught him. People can finally rest knowing this murderer is caught, and on his way to a more maximum security prison.
Never understood how a convicted murderer - awaiting transport to secure prison - was allowed out of his cell and into the yard in the first place. Think the coverage will now turn to scrutiny of the facility - and it's failed protocol - that allowed this escape to happen.
I thank God no one else was harmed during this escape
wonder who else will set the 'who can escape the longest' record?
Thank goodness!! So glad this is over.
I am Brazilian and this criminal is from here, he killed a man in my country and then managed to escape to the US, where he killed his ex aswell, got arrested and then fled from prision. If it was here in Brazil the cops would most pbbly kill him and alledge there was a confrontation.

He murdered - twice. Once, stabbing a mother in front of her children. No, I’m not fascinated. No, I don’t want to hear from him. The wheres and hows will all come out and the police will tell us. Adults are able to focus on what’s ethical and important - while children want everything to be a comic book story. This guy was a heinous murderer, not Indiana Jones. And his fanboys need help. “Grow up” was putting it politely.

Too bad he was caught alive. Now we have to house and feed him for 60 years.
I thinks it's laughable how many comments about a job well done by law enforcement. This was an embarrassment of a search effort. Not done well at all in fact. The lack of accountability in this society is just sad. Just look at how it ended. 500 over paid security guards allowed him to break the perimeter again only to be basically caught by a civilian.
Back in the day, two hound dogs and 4 police officers on foot would have been enough, instead of 100 police officers running around in air conditioned cars.

Just to summarize the prison issues that occurred that allow the prisoner to walk of of CC Prison. Convicted of 1st degree murder with (automatic life sentence, without parole) in Chester Country. Scheduled to be transferred to the state prison system. He should have been on 24 hour lock down and NOT in the general prison population while awaiting transfer. He wasn't. Incredibly, he was out for "recess" in the REC yard with the general population apparently without supervision, in a restricted, area either with no guards or no guards watching. Security camera shows another inmate standing watch for him as he enters the restricted area and climbed the wall. No one monitoring the security cameras as he went up the wall while staring directly at the security camera. Again, no guards; no one monitoring the security camera. Gets to the roof where an IDENTICAL prison escape had just occurred days earlier. He gets on the roof. No one monitoring the security camera. Guard tower guard? Asleep? on cell phone? Where was the guard for the tower and what was he doing (we know what he wasn't doing)? Cavalconti wanders across the roof and climbs down the outside where there are more security cameras. No one monitoring. Walks away from the prison guard towers and security cameras UNNOTICED. The prison doesn't even know he escaped. Walks up the road and vanishes. Was this just simply the perfect storm of extreme prison negligence as the public is supposed to assume - or was there something else at play? Later a count determines he wasn't in the prison.
