A second escapee from the Bibb County Detention Center in Macon, Georgia, has been apprehended.
On Friday, cops captured Marc Kerry Anderson, 25, at an apartment complex in Atlanta. Anderson was being jailed on aggravated assault charges, according to the Bibb County Sheriff’s Office.
According to a sheriff’s office press release, authorities also detained 32-year-old Tymesha Timley for obstructing Anderson’s capture.
According to the statement, Timely was taken to the Bibb County Detention Center and charged with assisting or causing another to escape legal custody or imprisonment and obstructing the arrest or punishment of a felon.
Chavis Demaryo Stokes, 29, was the first of the four fugitive convicts apprehended. Last week, he was captured by police.
Joey Fournier, 52, and Johnifer Dernard Barnwell, 37, are still on the run. Fournier is charged with murder. The US Marshals jailed Barnwell after being convicted on federal charges relating to “armed distribution of large quantities of drugs,” according to a news release from the US Attorney’s Office for the Middle District of Georgia.
The four convicts fled early on October 16 through a broken window in an interrogation room and a fence cut.
Authorities reported a blue Dodge Challenger in the parking area near the fence seemed to be helping the escape.
According to the FBI’s Atlanta office, the agency is now collaborating with local law enforcement and the US Marshals Service to locate the two convicts.
Bibb County Sheriff David Davis earlier stated that there were “less than 10 people” working at the jail when the breakout occurred. He noted that the agency has begun to make some staffing adjustments at the institution.
An internal inquiry is looking into how the convicts got out of their cells and into a day room, which is a regular place for inmates during indoor leisure hours and may not have been closed because the detainees were meant to be sleeping.
The FBI in Atlanta, the Bibb County Sheriff’s Office, the US Marshals Service, and the Macon Regional Crime Stoppers have all offered rewards totaling $73,000 for information leading to the convicts’ apprehension, according to a news release issued Wednesday.
