Two inmates at the Camden County (N.J.) Jail were charged June 13 with attempted escape. Anthony C. Rodesky and Craig Orler are accused of creating a hole in their cell window, though county officials wouldn't elaborate on how they planned to escape. They were in a cell five stories above the ground and the window they were making a hole in had a metal bar across it, said Ken Shuttleworth, a county spokesman. Officers noticed the crack June 9. "They made an effort to do it and that's why they're charged, but in the final analysis, there was no way they were going to do it," Shuttleworth said. The hole was apparently so small, "a mouse couldn't get through it," he said. County officials had said five men were involved but on June 13 reduced that number to the two who were charged. Two weeks ago Rodesky, of Berlin Township, pleaded guilty in Superior Court to two counts of felony murder. He admitted killing James Mickno of Maple Shade on April 1 inside Rodesky's home and killing Ranjit Patel of Voorhees on March 22 in the motel Patel owned on Route 73 in Maple Shade. Orler, 28, of Whiting was being held on federal charges after violating parole on a possession of a prohibited weapons charge, Shuttleworth said. Orler has been identified by law enforcement as a member of a neo-Nazi skinhead group. He has three convictions for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, according to Vaughn L. McKoy, director of the New Jersey Division of Criminal Justice. Hearings for the two men have not been scheduled. |
