Authorities looking for answers after Jacob Morley escape and capture
Authorities are piecing together the nine-day escape of convicted murderer Jacob Morley, who was recaptured on Interstate 70 near Kansas City. Authorities are now trying to figure out how a convicted murderer evaded a multi-state manhunt for over a week. Police say the twenty-eight-year-old slipped through a fence at a West Tennessee prison complex on October twenty-fifth. Investigators are now tracing his path through Illinois and Missouri. Officials revealed Morley holed up in a rural hunting shed, stole two trucks, wrote an apologetic note, and acquired three firearms before being tracked by roadside license plate readers. Multiple agencies are now reviewing security vulnerabilities to ensure a similar escape never happens again.
