ATLANTA, Ga. (AP) — Georgia’s top corrections official says prison workers will be doing many things differently after two inmates escaped last month from a transfer bus and killed their guards. Corrections Commissioner Greg Dozier says Friday the changes will include trail vehicles for all inmate transports, and there will be video surveillance throughout the bus, not just in inmate compartment. He also says transport officers will get annual refresher training, and the department will do an annual audit focusing solely on inmate transport. He adds other procedures will be changed to upgrade security.

They were caught two days later in Tennessee. Read More. |
