The search continues on Monday for an inmate who walked away from a minimum-security prison in Bridgewater after news broke that he faces new charges.
The Department of Corrections said 51-year-old Manson Brown escaped from the Old Colony Correctional Center Friday evening after word got out that he was indicted on rape and home invasion charges in a 1996 attack in Cambridge.
"Escaped" is putting a benevolent spin on things. Brown learned that he was going to be charged with the more serious charges of rape and home invasion and simply walked out of the facility. Here's the real kicker:
Brown was classified as minimum security even though he escaped from prison twice before – once in 1982 from MCI-Plymouth and in 1983 from Brooke House, a residential contract house.
Got that? Even though he was in jail for violent crimes, he was in a minimum security prison. Even though he had escaped, twice before, once from a minimum security prison, he was still in a minimum security prison. Somehow Brown managed to get word of his impending indictment before the folks that run the minimum security prison, and simply walked away. That's criminal "justice" in the state of Massachusetts.
MA: You're more likely to escape from jail here.
That is all.

Ah... ummm...er... Just no !@$&* comment...
...and on the other side of the continent, four police officers shot and killed by a suspect who had a 95-year prison term commuted, failed parole, sent back in, released four years into a 35-year sentence, and now, with an aggravated rape charge hanging over him, was allowed to post a $150,000 bond. He apparently told some folks that he was going to shoot some cops. Nobody felt it necessary to report said future action. At 18 he was already being described as a habitual criminal.
Bah!!
Huckabee's pardon of him is going to be such a political embarassment if he ever runs again... Nitwit.

He was thinking about it...hopefully this changed his mind right proper!
I don't want that fart in my tent, no matter HOW big!
Not to worry. The shooter is shot, DRT, by a solo officer investigating a stolen car.
One of the murdered officers also got a shot into him. He had been shot in the torso at the coffee shop, evidently by a severely wounded officer.
