hopefully they started talking and how they got him here. what struck me was how quickly earlier things seemed to get back to normal. i remember they were moving the barricades behind you just shortly after they captured this guy. harris it was amazing. when we first pulled up onto the scene, the ambulance carrying david sweat still hadn t left. there was a police car in front, a police car behind and they had a state trooper block a couple cars neighbors, just normal sunday afternoon traffic here in a rural neighborhood and then he was off. and then the police just sort of dispersed. a lot of the officers new york state police officers who have been here helping are from a ways away. i spoke to some woman and asked when are you going to be able to go home? nobody as far as i know from the officers i ve spoken to knows when they ll be able to go home but the feeling, just the sigh of relief of the whole
two escaped inmates now accounted for, one shot and killed the other shot and captured. now the investigation shifts to building a case against the surviving convict and the prison workers accused of helping the men escape. let s bring in janine shapiro, host of judge janine. always great to talk to you. how are you, harris? i m great. i have two big questions. the death penalty abolished in 2007. these guys knew, judge, that no matter what they did, if they were put back in that prison nothing else could be adjudicated against them. they ll press these charges, but the penalty is the penalty. they got life. look actually no matt has 25 to life. it could have been something to the rest of them but through the 25. but at the same time sweat had
your bearings even though these guys may or may not have had help on the outside once they got out, you have to get acclimated pretty quickly, so that might slow you down a little bit, according to what i m reading from psychiatrists. in addition to that as we all know now, these individuals, matt and sweat, were supposed to have help harris once they got out of that manhole cover. there was supposed to be a woman to drive them away. they had to find themselves out in the wilderness literally in an area where they didn t have any clue where they were going. it s kind of surprising to me though as well as to a lot of viewers that they were able to stay out as long as they were but when you look in that terrain, harris it s a heavily forested area and it s very difficult to search. so i can see why it took law enforcement this long to catch these guys but thankfully it ended with both these men caught and the one killed on friday. we ve heard a lot today and it s conjecture.
you know what you were passing me a note to talk about what s involved in that type of. have you reached that treeline? you might have turned around if he had a weapon. it s an interesting situation how that sergeant sergeant jay cook was able to take this guy not knowing, perhaps, everything. in the 90s, i was involved in a shooting with several police officers. i thank god there were a lot of officers that were able to come to the scene. he was firing his weapon at. . it s the most frightening thing in the world, harris the most frightening thing in the world. fortunately for us we are alive today, that suspect is dead. real bad guy, killed a few people from what i understand. but my point is that as rod so
are among the dead. we re also hearing the stories about the heroes including one man who took three bullets while protecting his fiancee. both survived. harris? john thank you. thanks for calling angie s list. how may i help you? i heard i could call angie s list if i needed work done around my house at a fair price. you heard right, just tell us what you need done and we ll find a top rated provider to take care of it. so i could get a faulty light switch fixed? yup! or have a guy refinish my floors? absolutely! or send someone out to groom my pookie? pookie s what you call your? my dog. yes, we can do that. real help from real people. come see what the new angie s list can do for you.
