Teenage Murder Suspect Evades Jail Again, Second Time in November
Two 17-year-old murder suspects escaped from the East Baton Rouge Juvenile Detention Center in Louisiana, prompting a search by local police and the U.S. Marshals Service. One of the teenagers had previously escaped in November, and the facility has faced criticism for repeated escapes and violent incidents. The East Baton Rouge Parish has allocated $2 million for security upgrades, but these are still in the planning and design phase.
