Escapee Christian Neal Still Running
posted (May 15, 2019)
Earlier on we showed you an event at the prison. That gave the press the opportunity to ask CEO Virgilio Murrillo for an update on the last of the 3 prisoners who escaped last week Tuesday. As we told you, 2 of them have since been recaptured, but the third, Christian Neal, is still on the run.

The CEO told us that they are on his trail, and he made a plea to the public not to harbor this prison escapee. Here are those comments:

Reporter
"Do you have any leads to where he may be at this point?"

Virgilio Murillo
"We're still pursuing him and I am glad that you asked the question because one of the things that I want to do is to take this opportunity to tell the public please don't run the risk of harboring that prisoner because anybody who harbors a prisoner can face up to five years imprisonment if they catch them. That is the law. So maybe you could publish this so that they hear. We're still on him and we're hoping to get him very, very soon."

Neal was convicted of carnal knowledge and robbery.
