STORYLINE:
On Tuesday evening, state police confirmed that Corey Boyd, 19, became the fifth of the escapees from a New Orleans jail to be apprehended.
Boyd is accused of killing a person who caught him and others trying to break into a car in April 2024, the Times-Picayune/ NOLA.com reported, allegedly striking the victim with a vehicle before someone else shot the person.
He has has been charged with second-degree murder and pleaded not guilty.
Officials have underscored multiple security lapses, including ineffective cell locks and that the inmates escaped when the lone guard monitoring them went to get food.
The absence of the inmates, many charged with or convicted of violent offenses such as murder, was not reported to law enforcement for hours. Five remain at large.
A New Orleans jail maintenance worker has been arrested and is being held on a $1.1 million bond after admitting he turned water off to a toilet covering a hole in a cell wall, allowing 10 men to squeeze through the gap in one of the largest jailbreaks in recent U.S. history.
