That'll work too. Have your people call my people....
Did my point come across? I was hoping someone would notice.
Put the woman in jail too. I do not believe her for one second
For some gals there's something about a guy in uniform. For some women there's something about a guy behind bars.
The movie "Ghost" inspires yet another love story.
He may have been a trustee, but it appears his status is trusty. I for one, think his status was not as trusty, and he shouldn't have been a trustee.
Redundant
There are no bad Ida Lupino movies. Some are a little better than others.
If they've been living together as a "married couple" for the past ten years, I can almost guarantee that she's not "putting out"! LOL
How true... How (sadly) true!
And if Hollywood has its way the two convicts fall deeply in love...the story ends... happily ever after... and scene.
Trustee perhaps? Score one against the AP editor.
Movie idea's already been done, lol. Older movie I recently saw on TCM - Mrs. Soffel. True story and the movie was good.
"A Weak Woman's Insane Infatuation" read the headline of a 1902 Pittsburgh newspaper in the midst of a bleak northern winter riddled with scandal. The "weak woman" was Kate Soffel, wife of the Allegheny County Jail's warden, Peter Soffel, and mother to his four children. She was accused of helping two convicted murderers, Ed and Jack Biddle, escape from her husband's prison and then attempting to flee with them to Canada. Ed and Jack Biddle were brothers who received as much attention for their handsome good looks while incarcerated as they did for their violent crimes. As the warden's wife, Mrs. Soffel made it part of her duties to regularly visit all the inmates and offer words of Christian comfort to them from the Bible. It was during these visits that Mrs. Soffel took a special liking to the older Biddle, Ed. The sensation caused by Mrs. Soffel's shocking actions to help the Biddles would shake up the town for years to come." (snip)

Well, Ofcourse its already been done, but with the right actors and the right director it can be done again, and better. .... Someone get Mr. DeMille on the line for me.......
Trusty with the "y" is correct. Here's an excerpt from Oklahoma law:
1. Escape-Trusty May Be Prosecuted as Escaped Prisoner. A prisoner of the State Penitentiary permitted to be at liberty as a trusty and not confined within the walls of the Penitentiary may be prosecuted as an escaped prisoner where he leaves the place where he was assigned to work without permission, and is recaptured In another state. 21 O.S. 1941 § 443.
This defense didn't fly for Patty Hearst and it won't fly here either.
