Two Killers Escape Prison With Forged Documents

Recently, two men forged court documents helped two murders escape prison. They are now on the run. Authorities now say prison officials were duped by the court documents, which included a fake motion from a prosecutor and a judge’s forged signature.

Because of this incident, the courts had to make sure no one else had been released mistakenly. A judge in that case said that there were several red flags that should have attracted the attention of the court clerk’s office or the Corrections Department. It wasn’t clear exactly who dummied up the paperwork or if the two cases were connected. The authority is doing all that they can to find these two murderers. This just goes to show that even the government makes brutal mistakes.
