  1. Just 1 month to go.
    Unbelievably stupid.
    Now he’ll be back in for years to come.
    Stupid. !!

    1. Genius John Antaramian used a TIF district to build the school right next to the jail. He also built the failed Pick n Save and half empty apartment complex there in brass Park and the city is still paying back the debt.

      1. grain of salt i guess. having the school built a block away, made it so that the prison could no longer have sex offenders and murders there. before the school, you had sex offenders and murders housed there.

  2. He was set to be released in a MONTH??? That guy is a total moron with chit for brains. Now he is looking at a much longer sentence if they catch him.

  3. Who wants to live in the new uptown “luxury apartments”?Another great idea.Right next to all the pervs and pedos.

  4. Goes to prison for being a felon with a gun, escapes, is now considered armed and dangerous. Yeah, it’s the guns fault…

  5. Word is, is that he was involved in a Controlled Buy and when he realized it, he jumped ship since he was going to do more time any how.
