Inmates broke into jail, say cops September 9, 2010 10:38 AM | permalink

Eric Bishop (pictured at top) and Justin Forcum (bottom) managed a tricky escape from jail, stole a pickup truck and scored narcotics before getting nabbed as they tried to head back inside, according to police in McDonald County, MO.

Of their alleged great escape and capture upon returning to a little hole they'd wormed out of only two hours previously, Undersheriff Bud Gow said, ""I really couldn't believe it, I couldn't believe they came back, you would think if you got out you'd stay out instead of trying to sneak back in."

Yup, that's what we'd think.

They now have been given a five-year mandatory sentence for being caught escaping from jail.  No word on how much time they'll get for trying to shimmy back in.
