Escape Plot Derailed At Southwestern Jail
WEST VIRGINIA...
A Southwestern Regional Jail corrections officer recently foiled an escape attempt by three inmates. The guard learned inmates were allegedly plotting an escape attempt by utilizing the water chase, which is an area where corrections officers are able to turn off the water pressure to keep inmates from flooding parts of the jail. Howard Childers 28, of Barboursville is now being charged for attempting to escape; Kenneth Lee Nickson, 42, of Charleston is being charged with being an accessory before the fact; and Larry Jackson, 27, of North Springs, is being charged with being an accessory before the fact. Cpl. Martin questioned the inmates abut the incident and asked just how Childers got into the water chase." A further investigation foiled the escape plot.
