Corrections officials are searching for two inmates, one of them a convicted drug dealer from Trenton, who escaped from a minimum security prison in Cumberland County over the past weekend. Armond Holloway, 34, and Edward Southerland, 25, climbed a fence to escape a minimum security compound at South Woods State Prison Saturday evening, corrections spokesman Matt Schuman said. Both were already eligible for placement in a halfway house, and could have been paroled in June 2011. "They were in a position where they could either succeed or fail, and they chose to fail," Schuman said, noting each man could see three to five years added to his sentence as a result of his escape. Holloway allegedly ran a drug dealing operation in the Island section of Trenton in 2004 until he was arrested inside a Lawrence motel room with his girlfriend and nearly $50,000 worth of powder cocaine. Holloway was arrested again in July 2005 after allegedly selling cocaine on West State Street. He fled out a third-floor window as police raided the building he was in, but officers arrested him on the fire escape. Read More. |
