How on earth did he do that!

LegalView's DumbJustice - Dumb Justice Violent felon Larry A Crump escaped his incarceration at
Bourbon County Jail by fleeing through the mail box.

Some statistics for you here: the mailbox is 15" by 15" square; Crump is 6 feet tall and weighs 180 pounds.

He apparently escaped during a smoke-break. A video shows Crump escaping through the mail slot in the wall between the lobby of the jail and a guard's desk. The lobby leads to the front entrance of the jail. It took fifteen hours before anybody noticed that Crump was missing but, when the alarm had been raised, three bars were placed into the mailbox in an attempt to make it escape-proof.

Jail Administrator, Brent DeWeese, said the jail is now a non-smoking facility.
