Not always a good idea to check in
Chris Crego, of Lockport, KY was arrested for assault after a bar fight. When he didn’t show up for sentencing, the police put out a warrant for his arrest.
Though not a prison escape, per se, it technically counts as fleeing custody. He actually decided to leave the state and check into work on Facebook. The Terra Haute, IN. police took him in.
Oh, and he also posted his wanted picture from the Lockport Police on Facebook as well.
