State Escape Artist Breaks Out of Indiana Women's Prison
INDIANAPOLIS UP A female escape artist broke out of the Indiana Women's Prison Monday for the fourth time in six years. Lissa P.

Hanson’s prior escapes began Christmas 1951, with recapture in Louisville, a 1953 breakout, and another escape last January during escort to a dental appointment. Supt. Georgia Schneider said they will not get far and promised to recapture them.
