the not so great escape

2006 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

At the facility I work at there is a well known true story of the con who almost got away .The detention facility for I.C.E (I.N.S.)has an almost perfect record of no escapes .There was one famous escape attempt that everyone knows of that happened about 7 years ago . The average Detention time of detainees not fighting extradition is about 3 months . This was to long for one con who must of have seen Deniro in "cape Fear " tie himself under a vehicle and ride safely that way for miles . That was a movie .In movies people jump from impossible heights,are shot ,stabed ,and continue on like nothing happened . So this con tied himself under an exiting I.N.S. bus all was going smoothly as the bus left the facility , then the bus ran over a speed bump ten feet out the gate and the con was scraped off the bus like a bug by a windshield wiper .One might say he made a perfect escape ,from life .

I like the write-up enough to consider this, even though it may be an urban lgend. Because it's a second or third hand PA (and because I haven't seen this one on Snopes.com), I'll let it squeak by!


Fitzroy said:
Neutral: Personal Account
Yeah, if it were not a Personal Account I would feel differently. However, in that context, an unable to turn up any specific reason for doubts on my own, I too will let it squeak by.


Sheryl said:

Gosh, a lot of squeaking going on here! I quite like the story, myself, and if James can't find it on Snopes, then nobody can. I'll go with the guys.

This one smacks of UL to me. Tying oneself under a vehicle is no mean task and I doubt a speed bump would scrape him off, unless the bump was two feet high! A nice 'story' though and very adaptable to a variety of scenarios.
