NEW ORLEANS — Corey Harrison, the fourth detainee who escaped from a Mississippi jail more than a week ago was captured in Crystal Springs, the Hinds County Sheriff's Office said in a statement on Thursday.
A third detainee had been found dead inside a vehicle at a New Orleans truck stop on Sunday, authorities said. Casey Grayson, 34, was one of four men who broke out of the Raymond Detention Center in Hinds County last month, local authorities said."There was drug paraphernalia and suspected narcotics recovered in close proximity to where he was discovered in the vehicle," Jones told reporters during a press briefing Tuesday, noting that there was no foul play suspected.
The four detainees escaped through the roof of the Hinds County jail on April 21, according to the Hinds County Sheriff's Office. The men were discovered missing from the jail early the following day after a headcount, according to Jones. The men were pretrial detainees, meaning they were being held in prison while awaiting trial.
Raynes had been in the Raymond Detention Center since January 2022 after being charged with auto theft and business burglary and has a history of escaping pretrial detention facilities, according to Jones. He faces additional charges of escape and auto theft, the sheriff said.
