Bahahahaaa!
Inmate Breaks Back Into Jail After Beer Run
MONTPELIER, Vt. ? Mark Delude might have been taking to heart the hit country music song by Garth Brooks and George Jones about buying beer at the end of a long work day.
But the song about heading out on a B-double-E double-R-U-N that's climbing the charts isn't intended for prison inmates. And it certainly isn't intended to encourage people to break out of jail to grab a brew, even if they're planning on coming back.
Delude, 39, of South Barre, was reported missing on Friday night from the St. Johnsbury work camp where he was serving an eight to 30-month sentence for a variety of minor offenses, said Vermont State Police Lt. George Hacking.
When state troopers arrived at the minimum security prison, only a few hundred yards from the St. Johnsbury state police barracks, they found Delude with a 24-pack of beer and a carton of cigarettes back inside the fence, said Correctional Service Director Dick Turner.
Delude had apparently crawled under the fence that surrounds the jail, walked the mile and a half to the nearest convenience store, made his purchases and then returned, officials said.
Hacking, a 21-year state police veteran, said it was the first case of its kind he'd ever investigated.
"I don't remember trying to catch people trying to break back in," Hacking said. "But nothing surprises me."
Locked because this is a 10 year old thread that was bumped.
