Vermont prison escape rate questioned by corrections chief
Vermont Corrections Commissioner R Kent Stoneman said escape rate figures are misleading noting the state uses furloughs widely. A survey of about 370 inmates found over 60 escapes in the last year with many being walkaways or rule infractions. He cited Windsor State Prison as improving after recent steps to modernize the 165 year old facility.
