Twins swap clothes in jailbreak

STOCKHOLM, Sweden (Reuters) -- A man has escaped from a Swedish jail after switching clothes with his identical twin brother, officials said on Tuesday.

The two 18-year-olds were left alone in a detention cell on Monday after one of them had just been sentenced to 10 months in a reformatory school for assault and robbery.

The convict walked free from the jail after switching clothes and pretending to be his brother.

His brother then told wardens they now had the wrong man and his true identity was confirmed by fingerprinting. He was arrested for aiding a felon, but was also released a few hours later. He may face charges.

"We were quite simply duped. They are probably having a good laugh somewhere right now," said Lars-Ake Pettersson, head of the jail in Kronoberg in Stockholm.

The convict is still being pursued by police.

What an idiot brother for aiding a felon. Now they get to go through federel "pound me in the ass" prison together! :roll:

 
Damn liberal justice system! 😀

Nah, it's actually pretty funny that the guards didn't think about that, or that it's not part of their guard training, because I'd think this can't be the firse time such a ruse has worked.

Obviously, in a country where ordinary citizens have civil liberties, they can't hold a person who hasn't been charged or convicted.

Of course, now they're both going to live on the same side of the bars--if they catch them. (Why'd they let the not-guilty twin go? They surely should have understood he would be a flight risk.)

I'd laugh my ass off if the sentence for aiding a felon in a prison break is longer then the original 10 month sentence that the first guy was in for.

You must not have a sibling

I have six :roll:

And if any one of them did something that deserved jail time, I'd support them going to jail. I'd visit them regularly, but crimes deserve punishment, no matter who comitted them.

Well, I'd help out my siblings, except in extreme cases where they severly need to be punished.

EDITED for your clarity: :roll:
 
i can understand helping out a sibling, but this is an incredibly stupid idea. Did it not occur to the person that he would get charged with a crime as well? Now he has a felony on his record as well, and as soon as they catch his brother he'll be right back in jail. Somewhere in the original plan someone should've realized the consequences.
