also, deb ryan, confirmed earlier today that another prisoner actually escaped from this jail a couple months ago, john. so what do you know about the chester county prison? >> well, the chester county prison is a place that suffers from a lot of the maladies that many prisons suffer from, which is staffing having to do excessive overtime, trying to hire additional correction officers. but that's not unusual. on the other hand, laura, you know, you look at prison escapes in the united states. in 2000, there were about 5,000 prison escapes across the united states. that means from state prisons and federal prisons. >> big number. >> in 2019, i think that number was down to just under 2,000. so we've seen prison escapes go way down. part of that is the reduction in the prison population. but most of them are from minimum security facilities, medium security facilities. this is a fairly secure facility, which means he had to put some planning into it, some creativity. it's unlikely that a door was left open. but one of the reasons we're not hearing about the details of how he got out is i

deb ryan admits authorities are upset. calls the escape an outrage and speaking with people here in chester county, john, how they feel as well. while showing us their command center they are using in this search, pennsylvania state police said they are not going to hold another press conference at 3:00 today as they have in the past two days unless the news warrants. so, that means right now, they have no further updates to provide to the media and the search continues for this illegal immigrant who is a convicted murderer. again, the manhunt now in the ninth day. back to you, john. >> john: we will rely on you and your sources in the meantime, thanks for that. sandra. >> this is troubling for the country. we can't criminalize senators doing their job when they have a constitutional requirement to fulfill. it would be irresponsible for me in my opinion as chairman of the committee not to try to find out what happened. we are opening up pandora's box here. >> sandra: new reaction from senator lindsey graham moments ago aft

but i -- before i do that i want to turn this over to one of our close partners, district attorney deb ryan. she would like to say a few words and we'll be happy to take your questions following that. >> thank you. today is a great day here in chester county. our nightmare is finally over and the good guys won. we owe a debt of gratitude to all of the first responders for their tireless and dedicated efforts in bringing this fugitive to justice. they worked around the clock and we are deeply grateful to all of them. our community can finally regain its normalcy and breathe a collective sigh of relief. this would not have happened without the collaboration and efforts on behalf of a multitude of agencies. i need to thank the governor, colonel paris, lieutenant colonel bevins for his dedicated leadership. f.b.i., u.s. customs and border patrol. department of emergency services, sheriff's department and every single person who went out into the field in the most horrendous conditions. we had weather problems, we had terrain problems and a ton of obstacles that prevented our capture from occurr

. >> joining me today is district attorney deb ryan and chief county detective david sassa from the chesterng of thursday, august 31, inmate danelo cavalcante escaped from the chester county prison. since the day of the escape, there credible sightings within an area i described yesterday. we had one additional sighting last evening and conducted a search of the area but were unable to locate him. this morning we were notified by security at longwood gardens they had trail camera photos taken on their property which appear to be cavalcante south of the perimeter. investigators quickly examined those photos and we can confirm it is cavalcante. the photos confirm that cavalcante has not changed his appearance, but also he has obtained a backpack, a duffle sling type pack, and a hooded sweatshirt. cavalcante is depicted in the photo walking north at 8:21 p.m. and south through the same location at 9:33 p.m. working with the district attorney's office, several steps were quickly taken, including shifting our perimeter in an attempt to contain him between the southern end of the established peri

it was interesting that deb ryan, the d.a., said she prosecuted him in the first place. she wants him to get back behind bars. she also said he was on the way to smithfield to be reassigned. you think that might have prompted his move at this time? >> i mean, you know, he got a life sentence. when that came down, that inmate that escaped, he mirrored what that person did. did they have a conversation? maybe, maybe not. i'm sure law is well-aware of that. i don't think that had anything to do with it. he's looking at what's going on in brazil. they'll extradite him on the provisional arrest warrant. he has problems. what is the end game? what is he doing? that's going to be the problem. he's 5'nothing, 120 pounds. thick underbrush. 95 degrees. provisions are important. so you know a lot of what ifs. but they're doing it by the numbers and hopefully they put it to rest. >> martha: they have the best in the business helping them out. lenny depaul, former commander of the u.s. marshals. thanks very much. >> thank you. >> martha: today is the first week in september. so we ha
