TL;DR Summary

Jeriod Price, a convicted murderer, was released from prison in South Carolina after a judge signed and sealed an order clearing the way for his release, even though he still had some 16 years remaining on his sentence. The South Carolina Supreme Court overruled the judge's order, but Mr. Price failed to surrender, setting off a manhunt with officers from law enforcement agencies combing the state and beyond. The process surrounding Mr. Price's release remains murky, and the backlash to his release has drawn intense scrutiny of early release deals for inmates.
