  12. What in the world was he expecting, for someone to gun point the Correctional officers to release him or maybe ram the van over so he can get out…?

  19. What if he is really innocent and that was a true plea to escape from his captors? The Innocence Project was created for no reason in America.😮😮

  22. Hey Baby, you goin' somewhere? Oh, these shiny bracelets, naw Baby, dem from Walmart. Don't pay dem noooooo mind! Who dis Dude be? Oh, his name be Steve, he my Cousin.

  27. This is ridiculous☠️ I dont even want to know what he looked up for. Has to be going to a prison for a long time to even go with this type of grand escape.

    Also this is the sloppiest transfer job Ive ever seen. No bars, no guards inside, just a dude with the ability to kick out the window. If he had went feet first, he would have escaped.

    That said, wouldnt it be crazy if actually he was wrongly convicted and they were hanging him out of the van as a scare tactic to make him not snitch☠️

  36. Because covering his handcuffs with his orange jumpsuit makes him look less criminal and more like a helpless damsel in distress.

  43. Probably being abused and tortured… but nobody will care because he’s just some black criminal
