Authorities raid home where New Orleans jail escapee appeared to shoot video pleading for help: source
- On May 16, 2025, ten inmates broke out of the Orleans Parish jail, sparking a large-scale manhunt across New Orleans and neighboring states.
- The escape followed ongoing issues with jail conditions including unmanned tiers, faulty locks, and staff shortages that federal monitors have documented over several years.
- Eight escapees have been captured, including Leo Tate and Jermaine Donald who were extradited from Texas back to Louisiana on May 30, while Antoine Massey and Derrick Groves remain fugitives with a $50,000 reward each.
- More than 200 law enforcement officers from multiple agencies continue the manhunt, costing New Orleans close to $500,000 in overtime and additional pay, with the total possibly much higher according to experts.
- The escape intensified tensions between local officials investigating the jailbreak, raised questions about jail oversight, and led to public appeals urging fugitives to surrender and justice to follow due process.
