BREAKING NEWS – Dannemora, New York – A prison worker has admitted to investigators that she “unknowingly” provided vital assistance to two convicted killers who escaped a maximum-security prison in upstate New York last weekend, according to a published report. Joyce Mitchell told New York State Police that she gave Richard Matt and David Sweat access to a cell phone and smuggled power tools into Clinton Correctional Facility, where she worked as a supervisor. She said the men told her that the power tools would be used to construct bird houses, and the cell phone was necessary to contact PETA and the local city hall, to insure that the dwellings were meeting the local building codes.
