Convicted killer escapes from San Quentin
A convicted wife killer, Neil Edward Darrow, 30, escaped from San Quentin about two weeks ago during an exercise period. Officials say he slipped outside the walls after prior escape attempts and was hidden inside the complex for several days before any discovery. Darrow was serving a life sentence for the Sacramento murder of his wife, Margaret, and had a history of prison escapes spanning Vacaville and a courtroom incident where a guard fired a shot after he allegedly waved a gun.
