Video shows murder suspect’s escape from Washington Co. courthouse

[edhaynes]

This happened as a direct result of removing restraints as required by Oregon law. He was captured a few hours later.

WHY DO THEY UNCUFF THEM WHEN THEY'RE IN COURT THEY NEED TO LEAVE THEM CUFFS SO THEY DON'T ESCAPE!!!!

[ryanbarker]

what do you expect from a guy with nothing to lose?

[ceasarromero]

Affirmative action cop was done before she reached the stairs.

At that moment the female cop realized it was time to get a gym membership

[dontask]

Why run? They would let him go anyway.

[jimtom]

It always amazed me how cops are allowed to be 800lbs, don't they have a weight and physical requirements cmon

[imnotbob]

Oregon should change it's motto to "Incompetens Rei Publicae"

If you can escape the Courthouse like this, you automatically get a free pass for the Justice system being so ridiculously incompetent.

[edwardprice]

They did everything except tie his shoes for him. What could go wrong ???

[shadow.banned]

Impressed he managed to escape for hours.

[sunnyhendry]

Thought he was cuffed ? Poorly designed courtroom. Too easy for murder suspect to jam

[abptlm]

He exited using the "Staff Only" entrance. How many years will that add to his sentence?

[charlesincharge.]

Boy did legs the whole time he was in jail. 📡👽🇺🇸 RUN!!!

[amadablam]

At the end, dude should have hid behind door and let both cops run(waddle) by.

[jamescampbell]

In what alternate universe do they take the restraints off of defendants in a courtroom? These idiots need to be jailed.

[hkgat]

That 5/5 with the stripes never had a snowballs chance.

[zarmindrow]

now those guards are gonna need a dozen donuts to make up for all those lost calories

[MeoMiyo]

Lmao, that dude had a plan. Why did they remove the restraints. Our justice system is messed up.

[cecerider]

If restraints are removed so the jury can't see his condition of imprisonment; keep the foot chain on. Just remove the hand restraints. bolt the chairs to the floor and put a ring on them for the other side of the leg restraint.
