The California police managed to catch one of the prisoners who made a week ago from prison in Santa-Ane. As the sheriff of Orange Sandra Hatchens, Back Dung, voluntarily surrendered to the law enforcement officers on Friday, on January 29, CNN reports.
Other fugitives - Jonathan Tierta and Hussein Nari, who is called the "second Hannibal Lecturer ," - still remain at large.
In the case of the escape, as previously reported , at least ten people were detained. Among them are a 44-year-old teacher Nushafaryan Ravagi, who has been working in prison for the last six months. According to investigators, it consisted in close relations with Naer.
The police believe that Ravagi could convey to the prisoners various objects with which they fled, including devices with Google electronic cards installed on them.
It was established that the prisoners were able to get the tools, and then cut the metal rods of the grille in the utility room. On Saturday, after 5:00, they got out to the roof of the prison, went down with the help of interconnected sheets and went free to the technical tunnel.
The warders learned about the escape, the initiator of which is considered by Naer, only after 16 hours. They did not find three prisoners during verification, carried out late at 21:00. The reason for the delay was a fight between prisoners. Investigators do not exclude that the brawl was inspired in order to give the fugitives the opportunity to go away.
The day after the escape, the convicts stole a white van. According to the prosecutor Hatchens, the main suspect in the theft is the surrendered police Douong. Criminals who remained at large can still use the car so far.
The most active searches of the fugitives are in the cities of Westminster and Garden-Garden, where the numerous Vietnamese diaspora lives and ethnic criminal groups operate. It was there that two of the fugitives could find a refuge-20-year-old Tierta and 43-year-old Doon, having Vietnamese roots.
The former marine of Iranian descent Hussein Nari, who is now 37 years old, was convicted of drug trafficking, robberies, abduction, cruel torture and murder. In 2012, with the help of a soldering lamp, he tortured one of the drug dealers, achieving information about where he buried the money belonging to the gang. Then the “Second Hannibal Lecter” forced one of the gangsters to cut the genitals from the victim, after which the crippled man died. Subsequently, Nari tried to move to Iran, but he was detained on the way to Spain, where his family was.
The prison of Santa-Ana was built in 1968, it is located 50 kilometers from Los Angeles. Currently, the institution contains about 900 male criminals. The escape from this prison, committed a week ago, is the first over the past 30 years.
