NASHVILLE -- A Tennessee fugitive was arrested at a Texas motel Friday along with the female guard accused of giving him a uniform and helping him slip away from a prison hospital six days earlier.

After a search that had extended as far as Arizona, Edward McDaniel and Vicki Sanford surrendered quietly to federal officers and police before dawn at a Days Inn in El Paso, said Jennifer Johnson, a spokeswoman for the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation.

McDaniel, 37, allegedly escaped Saturday by walking out during a shift change at the maximum-security DeBerry Special Needs facility in Nashville, where he was serving a 20-year sentence for the 1996 shooting of a sheriff's deputy.

Authorities believe he drove away with Sanford, 51, a former truck driver who had worked sporadically at the prison for about two years.

Seems like I read her son-in-law was also arrested in relation to this case.

Yup

"Sanford's son-in-law Michael Moize, 28, who is also a guard at the prison, was arrested Monday on charges of aiding the breakout."

This sounds like a replay of the plot from Raising Arizona

My wife was a nurse at the local county jail. A male guard was caught giving fellatio to a male inmate in the jail's chapel. After that it was call the Chapel of Love

... the maximum-security DeBerry Special Needs facility in Nashville,

What an unfortunate name for a prison.
