Arrested New Orleans jail worker says he helped inmates escape
Manila Bulletin
|May 22, 2025
A New Orleans jail maintenance worker has been arrested and is being held on a $1.1-million bond after admitting he turned water off to a toilet covering a hole in a cell wall, allowing 10 men to squeeze through the gap in one of the largest jailbreaks in recent US history.
-
The inmates pulled off the daring escape early Friday by yanking open a faulty cell door, moving the toilet, and slithering through the hole.
Graffiti on the wall included the message "To Easy LoL," with an arrow pointing to the gap.
On Tuesday evening, state police confirmed that Corey Boyd, 19, became the fifth of the escapees to be apprehended.
