Pennsylvania investigators release footage of prison escape | ABC News



As a Pennsylvania manhunt for an escaped killer went into its seventh day, an investigation has found he followed a strategy used by an inmate who bolted from the same county facility in May, officials said.

Fugitive Danelo Cavalcante absconded from the Chester County Prison on Aug. 31 by scaling a wall to gain access to the roof and pushing through razor before jumping down to a less secure area to make his getaway, Howard Holland, the acting warden of the Chester County Prison said at news conference.

The 34-year-old Cavalcante, who was at the facility awaiting a transfer to the state prison after being convicted of murder in the fatal stabbing of his ex-girlfriend, followed the same method of escape and route used by an inmate at the Chester County Prison, Holland said.

  3. He looked straight at that camera and said seee yaah ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

  4. I don't think he wants to kill again , he killed his girlfriend , crime of passion!

  5. Bro had to have been watching a Spider-Man movie in his cell ๐Ÿ˜‚

  6. All these sightings and no ones stepping in to arrest him

  7. Why is he not wearing slides? I was told there would be slides!

  8. We California residents don't put up with this problem like the way they do. Of what's from Chester County Pennsylvania.

  9. Imagine training a new officer. "Now look, some of these guys have superpowers."

  10. The prison was out to lunch…

  11. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜…

  12. Making money is an action. Keeping money is behavior, but โ€œgrowing money is wisdomโ€. I found this out a week ago after getting a $10,000 return on my $3,000 investment in 7 days.

  13. Aff sai daqui pra dar palhaรงada lรก fora, uma vergonha para nosso Paรญs

  14. Lol. Can you really blame them for taking advantage of a easy situation? I mean how stupid can you be to design something so easy to escape I think the engineer and architect should be the ones in trouble for that one.

  15. He escaped with the help of them two strap Velcro shoes thatโ€™s what it was.

  16. Security in todays ages arent watching cameras their heads are down in their phone! Tic Tok, Instagram, Netflix or they automatically watch the main cameras out of habit

  17. Cleverโ€ฆ..very clever.

  18. Thatโ€™s was just the first step to going free, a series of steps took place after the Spider-Man moves, the system really failed every step of the way!

  19. Is this a Minimum Security Prison (still though – wtf) ??? Looking directly into what appears a two-way mirrored door, scale the wall, leap down and walk away) … Impressive, nonetheless ๐Ÿ˜ฎ๐Ÿ˜ฎ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

  20. So we finally found it: The perk of being 5 feet tall.

  21. They should just make this a tourist attraction. "See if you got what it takes to escape from prison" $10

  22. SOOOOO HE KNEW THAT THE CAMERA CAUGHT HIM AND STILL DID IT ANYWAY ๐Ÿ˜ฑ๐Ÿ˜ฑ๐Ÿ˜ฑ๐Ÿ˜ฑ๐Ÿ˜ฑ๐Ÿ˜ฑ๐Ÿ˜ฑ๐Ÿ˜ฑ HE IS BOW

  23. how can he clime on the wall like spiderman- I'm very speechless right now.

  24. Im confused….has this prison ever heard of a roof?

  25. Break his legs and heโ€™ll never pull that stunt again ๐Ÿ˜‚

  26. We used to do that in the hallway of our house as kids. We used to climb all the way to the ceiling and just sit there like a spider.๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

  27. They got paid to let him go free ainโ€™t. O way he jus scaled them walls and was out FOH

  28. Bubba gonna get you anyway.๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

  29. I wanna chuckle but knowing that this guy is a baby killer makes it concerning

  30. finds a creative way to escape but cant find a way to creative way to better his life hmm……lol

  31. Best moon walk ever!!! ๐Ÿ•บ ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

  32. No more letting the prisoners watch ninja warriors. ๐Ÿ˜‚

  33. Jesus christ its jason bourne.

  34. He picked his crime and his time ๐Ÿ˜‚

  35. The comments act like he was just gone once he got wherever "up" went. The entire perimeter of the prison a murderer is in wasn't barricaded? Razor wire? Guards? Constant cameras? I worked in a WORK RELEASE where they could just walk right off site, but we'd have seen it. Where was everyone??? And every other security/containment method?!? If it's that easy out, in prison clothes, it's that easy in too. Drugs, anyone? Catch!

  36. Warden: Note to self. Only allow really short prisoners in the areas with walls and fences.

  37. Spider-Man, Spider-Man, does whatever a Spider canโ€ฆ.
