Early Friday morning, ten inmates — of which several are facing murder charges — broke out of a New Orleans jail.
In a plot reminiscent of Shawshank Redemption, the inmates escaped by digging a hole behind a toilet.
After breaching the wall, they ran out of the jail through a supply door in the wee hours of the morning. Their escape wasn’t discovered until a routine head count hours later.
