Act of one or more inmates leaving prison through unofficial or illegal ways
POPULARITY
On June 6, 2015, two convicted murderers escaped from Clinton Correctional Facility in Dannemora, New York—a maximum-security prison that hadn't seen a successful escape in over 150 years. Richard Matt and David Sweat spent months meticulously cutting through steel walls, crawling through tunnels, and navigating the bowels of the prison before emerging through a manhole cover on a street outside the walls. Their escape was aided by prison employee Joyce Mitchell, who had become romantically involved with both inmates and smuggled them power tools hidden inside frozen meat. The three-week manhunt that followed involved over 1,000 law enforcement officers searching the dense forests of upstate New York. This is the story of the Dannemora prison break—an audacious escape that captivated the nation and exposed catastrophic security failures at one of America's most notorious prisons.Become a Patreon or Apple + subscriber now for ealry and ad free access from as little as $1.69 a week.

John Killick is an Australian former bank robber, author and one of the country's most notorious prison escapees. Over a criminal career spanning several decades, he spent more than 30 years in prison for a series of armed robberies, becoming widely known during the early days of Australia's decimal currency era. Killick's first offences date back to the 1960s, with much of his criminal activity driven by gambling and a high-risk lifestyle. His name became part of Australian crime history through repeated convictions and time served across multiple correctional facilities. He is most famously associated with the dramatic 1999 helicopter escape from Silverwater Prison in Sydney, orchestrated by his partner Lucy Dudko. The escape, which saw a hijacked helicopter land inside the prison yard to extract Killick, captured national attention. The pair remained on the run for 45 days before being apprehended, cementing the incident as one of the boldest prison breaks in Australia. Following his eventual release, Killick turned to writing and public speaking, sharing reflections on his life, criminal past and time in prison. His autobiography, The Last Escape, details his experiences and the events surrounding his infamous escape. ________________ Follow us on social media!

In the summer of 1985, Sean Penn's marriage to preeminent material girl Madonna was an epochal moment for ‘80s-era Hollywood. The bad boy from Bad Boys and the boy-toy pop superstar blissfully brought together the worlds of movies and music on a Malibu bluff overlooking the Pacific. But their subsequent attempt to make a movie together was anything but blissful. A wild film shoot in China would lead to even wilder things, like the time Sean dangled a photographer upside-down from a ninth-story balcony. Or the time he escaped a prison in Macau and had to have a pardon from the government negotiated by a former member of the Beatles. Or the time he spent in an American prison, where he found himself passing notes with a fellow inmate down the hall…one who happened to be one of the most notorious serial killers in history.

Send us a text**NOT A CLIP FROM MARTIN'S LAST INTERVIEW**Ex-republcian prisoner Martin McAllister joins us again to share the story of one of the IRA's most brazen and risky one-man prison escapes, an escape that was masterminded & executed in the space of 2 hours. It resulting in an IRA man walking straight out of the British internment camp, all while being assisted, unwittingly, by one of the top prison guards. Martin, not content with having once taken part in a mass-jailbreak from Portlaoise max-security prison, employed his skills of observation and opportunism to free a fellow republican prisoner who started the morning completely unaware that he would walk straight out of Long Kesh that day.
Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell have a long list of questions for South Carolina's 1st Circuit Solicitor David Pascoe and they aren't afraid to ask them. Pascoe, who is running to replace state attorney general Alan Wilson in next year's election has a well-known history of being the only top law enforcement officer in the state who is calling out corruption and seeking accountability for public officials who cross the line. Our Questions: Why is the unhinged (now former) Beaufort County deputy Billy Squires STILL not arrested? Is someone sitting on the case? Why are lawyer-legislators making hundreds of thousands of dollars of taxpayer money under Attorney General Alan Wilson? Wait. What? They are?!? Is there really a separate, better door for wealthy and politically connected defendants when it comes to the justice system? And what's going on with Judge Carmen Mullen? Plus a special Premium-Only conversation about Grand Juries and why some charges are routed there. ☕ Cups Up! ⚖️Episode References David Pascoe for SC AG Website
The official story was that convicted rapist and murderer Thabo Bester died in a South African prison fire on May 3, 2022, but the truth was far more shocking: he had faked his own death with a stolen corpse and easily walked out of a maximum security prison. Known as "The Facebook Rapist" for luring women with fake international modeling opportunities, Bester was serving a 30-year sentence for the rape and robbery of two women and the murder of his girlfriend, Nomfundo Tyhulu, in 2011. In this episode, we unravel the chaotic details of his escape and his life on the run: The Fake Death: An investigation into the cell fire and the burned remains raised immediate suspicion. The body used to stage his death was later confirmed to have died before the fire from blunt force trauma to the head, and DNA did not match Bester . The Accomplice: Dr. Nandipha Magudumana (Dr. Nandi): Celebrity physician Dr. Nandi, who claimed to be Bester's customary law wife, was his essential partner in crime. She initially collected the body and was later spotted shopping with Bester, aiding his life as a fugitive. She is a glamorous doctor who had it all, but chose a criminal life as a "cold-blooded accomplice". Life as a Fugitive: Before his escape was confirmed, Bester was running multiple scam companies from prison. After walking out, he continued his fraudulent schemes with Dr. Nandi, meeting clients and living in a rented mansion until their arrest in Tanzania in April 2023. This incredible true crime saga is also the subject of the Netflix docuseries, Beauty and the Bester. Thank you to this week's sponsors! Take care of your liver with Dose!

They say that the best defense is a good offense - and we at SuperPod Saga firmly believe in that. That's why this week, the SuperPod Fellaz are coming up with some very practical uses for video game weapons. We're preparing for any and all scenarios that might require our expertise with sick guns and swords and stuff, which we have acquired from years and years of rigorous training (playing video games).

In the summer of 1985, Sean Penn's marriage to preeminent material girl Madonna was an epochal moment for ‘80s-era Hollywood. The bad boy from Bad Boys and the boy-toy pop superstar blissfully brought together the worlds of movies and music on a Malibu bluff overlooking the Pacific. But their subsequent attempt to make a movie together was anything but blissful. A wild film shoot in China would lead to even wilder things, like the time Sean dangled a photographer upside-down from a ninth-story balcony. Or the time he escaped a prison in Macau and had to have a pardon from the government negotiated by a former member of the Beatles. Or the time he spent in an American prison, where he found himself passing notes with a fellow inmate down the hall…one who happened to be one of the most notorious serial killers in history.

It's often said that love makes people do crazy things. For Toby Dorr, love led her to break the law. While operating a prison dog program, Toby met and fell in love with John Manard, a man serving a life sentence for a deadly carjacking. Feelings grew between the two, and on February 12th, 2006, Toby smuggled John out of prison. The pair was subsequently caught and arrested, but it was during Toby's prison sentence that she was able to find freedom. Author and criminal justice reform advocate Toby Dorr revisits the story of her daring prison escape and emphasizes the importance of giving people second chances.

A Note from James: So, I'm out rock climbing, but I really wanted to take a moment to introduce today's guest: Roger Reaves. This guy is unbelievable. He's arguably the biggest drug smuggler in history, having worked with Pablo Escobar and others through the '70s, '80s, and even into the '90s. Roger's life is like something out of a movie—he spent 33 years in jail and has incredible stories about the drug trade, working with people like Barry Seal, and the U.S. government's involvement in the smuggling business. Speaking of Barry Seal, if you've seen American Made with Tom Cruise, there's a wild scene where Barry predicts the prosecutor's next move after being arrested—and sure enough, it happens just as he said. Well, Barry Seal actually worked for Roger. That's how legendary this guy is. Roger also wrote a book called Smuggler about his life. You'll want to check that out after hearing these crazy stories. Here's Roger Reaves. Episode Description: Roger Reaves shares his extraordinary journey from humble beginnings on a farm to becoming one of the most notorious drug smugglers in history. He discusses working with Pablo Escobar, surviving harrowing escapes from law enforcement, and the brutal reality of imprisonment and torture. Roger reflects on his decisions, the human connections that shaped his life, and the lessons learned from a high-stakes career. Whether you're here for the stories or the insights into an underground world, this episode offers a rare glimpse into a life few could imagine. What You'll Learn: How Roger Reaves became involved in drug smuggling and built connections with major players like Pablo Escobar and Barry Seal. The role of the U.S. government in the drug trade and its surprising intersections with Roger's operations. Harrowing tales of near-death experiences, including shootouts, plane crashes, and daring escapes. The toll a life of crime takes on family, faith, and personal resilience. Lessons learned from decades of high-risk decisions and time behind bars.

Maze Prison was seen by many as Europe's most secure prison. It was a prison within a detention center within an army camp and believed to be completely impenetrable by any one prisoner. That was until September 1983, when the IRA successfully pulled off the largest prison escape in British and Irish History. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kevin-owens04/support
Carl Panzram is one of the most interesting serial killers we've ever covered. He was incredibly self-aware. He knew he was bad. He didn't pretend, following his final arrest, that he hadn't done any of the horrible things he did. He only wished he could've done more horrible things. He truly hated the entire human race. Including himself. To the point that he when it was his time to die, he practically ran to the hangman's noose. True Tales of Hallow's Eve 4. Hope to see you there!
