A 31-year-old inmate who was up for parole consideration next month escaped yesterday from the Women's Community Correctional Center in Kailua, scaling a 7-foot fence and disappearing into the Pohakupu neighborhood near Kailua High School. It was the first escape from the Windward facility in at least five years, state officials said. But "this is not the first time or the last time that an inmate with one foot out the door does something like this," said Francis Sequeira, WCCC's warden. The escapee is Daphne Capol, who was serving a five-year sentence for second-degree forgery and second-degree theft. Sequeira said Capol does not have a history of violence and is not viewed as a threat to the community. Capol is described as 5 feet tall and 90 pounds, with black hair. She was last seen wearing jeans, a gray sweatshirt and a red T-shirt. Police said Capol was in "community custody" at WCCC, the lowest security classification for an inmate. She escaped about 9:45 a.m. |
