Jailbreak: Maintenance Worker a Scapegoat, Lawyer Claims | JQJO

Ten inmates escaped a New Orleans jail after clogging a toilet to halt water flow, enabling them to escape through a hole behind it. A maintenance worker, Sterling Williams, was arrested for allegedly helping, but his lawyer claims Williams was unaware of the escape plan and merely responded to a clogged toilet call. Williams' lawyer says he was a scapegoat, and that the cell should have been locked. Five escapees remain at large. Two additional arrests were made of individuals accused of aiding the escapees.
