New York State Convict Escapees Aided by Woman Prison Worker - 6/11/15


When this story first broke last week, the comparisons were to Shawshank Redemption, but as soon as it was suggested that a woman accomplice might be involved I made the connection to Mrs. Soffel and apparently I was right. Just this afternoon, that married prison worker admitted to having a "relationship" with both fugitives who, incidentally, are still on the lam at this time.

Mel is still young enough to reprise his original role...

That story made me think of this film immediately when I heard about it.

This is a true story too.
