As the days go by, we are learning more and more about the escape of an inmate from the Brown County Jail.
The latest information linked another inmate to Justin Dietrich’s escape.
Justice Thibodeaux spoke with investigators and said that he and Dietrich knew each other outside of jail and that he actually suggested and planned Dietrich’s escape.
The whole thing was caught on surveillance footage.
Dietrich hid inside a metal kitchen cart, which Thibodaux then pushed to a non-secure part of the jail, leading to Dietrich essentially walking out of the loading dock.
Dietrich was free for around 36 hours before being caught thanks to assistance from the Brown County Sheriff’s Office K9 unit.
Dietrich told deputies that he began planning his escape after receiving a “bad letter” from his girlfriend.
