Published: 10/06/2009

John Manard, who escaped from a Kansas prison by hiding inside a dog crate, was sentenced yesterday to another 10 years in federal prison on weapons charges, according to the Kansas City Star.

Manard was sprung from the Lansing Correctional Facility in 2006 by a prison volunteer, who used her dog van to drive him to freedom. Manard was hidden inside a cardboard box placed inside a dog crate.

The volunteer, Toby Young, was the founder of Safe Harbor, a program that rescued dogs from animal shelters and worked with inmates to train the pets and make them suitable for adoption. Married and a mother of two, she became romantically involved with the prisoner while working inside the Lansing Correctional Facility.

    Well in my opinion,This woman should be prosecuted to the highest extent of the law.Not only did she use her position to get inside the prison,she got involved with an offender, she broke the cardinal rules of,dont touch,and leave them inside the walls where you found them.In Mo. where I am a CO. the involvement as it was called would get her a class D felony,Im not sure what they would do about the escape attempt.Great job done by the ones who caught this before it got completed.
