An Ozark County man, Christopher S. Davis of Wasola, has been sentenced to five years in the Missouri Department of Correction for his role in aiding the escape of a fellow inmate from the Ozark County jail in 2020.
Davis’ sentence is to run concurrently with another five-year prison term for violating his probation in a previous case. In that case, Davis originally pleaded guilty in April 2019 to possession of a controlled substance.
At the time of Abbott’s escape, the Ozark County Sheriff’s Office said video footage shows the inmate was aided by fellow prisoner Davis.

An Ozark County woman arrested on a drug charge, after law enforcement reported she walked into the sheriff’s office, crying and talking to herself, is headed to prison.
The Ozark County Times reports 34-year-old Amber Sue Davis of Theodosia appeared before Circuit Judge Craig Carter earlier this month for a probation violation hearing.
The appearance marked Davis’ sixth probation violation since pleading guilty to possession of a controlled substance in May 2018.
She admitted to violating her probation. Her probation was revoked, and she was sentenced to the Missouri Department of Corrections for three years.
The newest violation report was filed following a Nov. 29 incident when Davis reportedly entered the Ozark County Sheriff’s Department, crying and talking to herself. She was arrested on an active warrant that had been previously issued, and deputies reportedly found methamphetamine in her pocket, court documents say.
