NY Prison Break-The Real Story 2015 HDTV x264-W4F

A fortress of a prison in a tiny village besieged by unforgiving wilderness. Two convicted murderers longing for a life outside its walls — plotting an elaborate escape, enlisting prison workers to sneak in tools, sometimes hidden in meat, and painstakingly carving their way out.

Then, one day, they pull it off, emerging from a manhole cover nearby. They leave behind a message written on a sticky note: “Have a nice day!”

The escape from the Clinton Correctional Facility almost two years ago touched off a 23-day manhunt that rattled and riveted this region of upstate New York where many said they had grown accustomed to living in the shadow of a maximum-security prison.

Mr. Matt was fatally shot by a United States Border Patrol agent after he refused to drop a shotgun, and two days later, Mr. Sweat was shot and captured near the Canadian border. Ms. Mitchell, who pleaded guilty to aiding in the escape, was sentenced to up to seven years in prison, describing her actions as “by far the worst mistake I have made in my life.”
