NOLA Inmate Mistakenly Released by Jail Still on the Loose; More than Two Months After 10 Escaped

ORLEANS PARISH, LOUISIANA, JUL 28 – Orleans Parish Jail mistakenly released Khalil Bryan, facing multiple violent charges, due to a clerical error involving similar last names, officials said.

  • Khalil Bryan, a 30-year-old inmate with violent and non-violent charges, was mistakenly released from Orleans Parish Jail on July 25, 2025.
  • The release occurred due to a clerical error involving misidentification with another inmate of the same last name who was slated for release.
  • Bryan was charged with several offenses, including aggravated assault, resisting an officer, and possession-related drug crimes, and he had outstanding warrants in Orleans and Jefferson parishes for violent acts involving family harm, endangering a minor, unlawful entry, as well as a previous conviction for armed robbery dating back to 2014.
  • Sheriff Susan Hutson acknowledged the mistake as a breakdown in internal procedures and accepted full responsibility, emphasizing that such an incident was unacceptable and should not have occurred.
  • Bryan remains at large as of July 29, 2025, with authorities urging the public to report information while the incident raises concerns about jail procedures and accountability.
