SALEM — Miguel Caraballo once allegedly boasted that he would never return to prison.

The convict and his moll should both have been killed on the spot.
A FUBAR that should NEVER have happened.
Where there’s a poor security location, the prisoners are chained together, and no one gets unlocked until they’re all in a secure place indoors, leg shackles or not.

I think Caraballo is in real danger of having his probation extended again. /s
