I can’t believe they got away!! 
That takes some planning and brass…I must say I think it is pretty funny. 
If I understand the story correctly, these guys had been in prison before…they’ll mess up again and go back…maybe. 
Yes they had previously been in prison and were awaiting new charges for a previous escape made by… helicopter!
All those who think that the investigation will eventually determine that the pilot was in on the plot, raise your hand.
Reminds me of an old Charles Bronson movie.
…and HERE is a scene from that movie.
