2 Jailbreaks. 3 Men Still on the Run. What We Know About the Circumstances of Each Escape

  • On May 16, Derrick Groves, Antoine Massey, and eight additional inmates broke free from the Orleans detention facility in New Orleans, while Grant Hardin fled a state prison located in Calico Rock, Arkansas on May 25.
  • The escapes involved assistance from at least 14 individuals, including friends, family, and a jail maintenance worker, and reports differ on detection times between the two incidents.
  • Groves was convicted of two 2018 murders and faces a life sentence, Massey has a history of escapes, and Hardin, a former police chief convicted of murder and rape, uses his law enforcement knowledge to evade capture.
  • Authorities offer $50,000 for Massey or Groves's arrest and $20,000 for Hardin, while officials use dogs, drones, and aircraft amid terrain challenges like caves and barns complicating searches.
  • Eight of the Orleans escapees have been caught mostly in New Orleans, but the longer the fugitives remain free, the harder it becomes to capture them, prompting ongoing multi-state manhunts and public appeals for tips.
