Two murderers escape from NYS high security prison (2 Viewers)

Sweat shot twice in the torso and taken into custody.

Stupid question maybe, but on what authority are the cops able to just shoot these guys? The one guy today was in a field and started running away and sounds like the cop shot him from behind. Are cops authorized to use deadly force in these circumstances? (I'm not opposed, but it's just weird to me that people aren't asking these questions on TV).

PS this second guy was a cop killer, maybe all the cops had a wink wink understanding that they don't take him alive.
Not a stupid question....Apparently if you have been convicted of a crime you are eligible to be shot in the back even if you are unarmed. As opposed to committing a crime and not yet convicted...One cop is considered a hero the other a murderer...
Read the last section 35.30 here: http://ypdcrime.com/penal.law/article35.htm#p35.30

In New York State, yes deadly force is justified under the circumstances of this prison escape.

They're fleeing the commission of and/or in the process of committing a felony.

 
Wait, why can't we shoot them again? Have you people all lost your minds?
I don't think we can shoot them again because one is dead and one is already caught.
Don't you have a wittle bug sting to be icing?
Nope. I have plenty of time to make fun of your grammar. But thanks for asking. :thumbup:
Ahh, the grammar hall monitor. Perfect. You have anything else, tough guy?

Anybody see the news story on CNN about another convicted murderer escaping in North Carolina with the help of a correctional officer he was having sex with? He's caught, because they're both stupid, but the timing is curious.
Saw that. It's incredible how the end game is never even considered. Just "break out and try to wing it".

Or, in the correctional officer's case, "help them break out and nobody will know!"
I just don't get why correctional officers keep having sex with inmates. Is it the whole bad-boy thing, what? Not to mention that they keep track of how many inmates are in the facility, and they know what cell they're in. Now you ruined your own life for a dumb reason.

I will say that I can understand why the inmate wants to get out, it is prison, after all. But escaping just leads to so many more problems than it solves. Even if you manage to evade the initial search, you're going to go the rest of your life looking over your shoulder, looking for any law enforcement officer that might have recognized you. Just pay your debt to society and go on your merry way, the alternative seems like too much of a hassle.
unless you got life with no parole. At that point you got nothing to lose
The corrections officer has lots to lose. Equality measures aside, why do they have female corrections officers in male correctional facilities? That's two cases in the past 30 days that we know of where a female worker was seduced by an inmate, who helped them escape.
