Not sure where exactly he dumped the truck, but behind a random business doesn't sound like the best idea. So I got to thinking...where would be the best place to dump a truck without drawing suspicion for quite some time?

Obviously, a rural area where nobody can see it would be best, but unless you have a particular spot in mind, anyone that comes across the truck that is out of place is likely going to report it. So I got to thinking that maybe it would be better to dump it in a place with a bunch of other vehicles like a long term parking lot at an airport. It's unlikely to be reported, but you run the rusk of a license plate reader picking you up.


Long term parking at the airport?

They might have LPRs, but I don't think most do. It's just an arm that keeps you in there if you haven't paid.

Blending into a homeless camp on the West Coast while planning to slip into Mexico is the best long term solution. Hopping on an east to west rail would be the best way to get there.

He's been recaptured

quote:

Missouri state troopers have recaptured an escaped murderer who broke free from a Tennessee prison last week, a highway patrol spokesperson told Fox News Digital Tuesday.

Jacob Allen Morley broke out of the Northwest Correctional Complex in Tiptonville, Tennessee, on Oct. 25, officials there said previously.

Details about his capture were not immediately available, but the spokesperson said more information would be forthcoming.

CAPTURED

quote:

Jacob Allen Morley, the convicted murderer who escaped from a Tennessee prison, is in custody, the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation said Tuesday.

The capture came more than a week after he escaped on Oct. 25 from the Northwest Correctional Complex in Tiptonville — a town of about 3,500, roughly 100 miles north of Memphis — and allegedly stole a truck that was later found abandoned in Illinois.



Morley was accused of shooting Birchfield in the back of the head. Birchfield’s body was found in a large metal box under Morley’s residence in northeast Tennessee, court documents state.

A motive was unclear, and Morley claimed self-defense during trial. He reported that had been hospitalized multiple times for mental health issues, including bipolar disorder, and had no prior felony offenses, according to the records.

Morley was sentenced to life in prison following his conviction.

I'm surprised they were able to spot him wearing that.

Dude didn't even try to change his appearance even a little bit. I'm not sure I understand that. You put forth all that effort to escape, then just keep walking around with the same beard and thick rimmed glasses?
