    No more furloughs for him. Loser.

    Let’s see…
    Headline says “on the run for 10 months.”
    First paragraph says “escaped from the Oahu Community Correctional Center eight months ago…”

    Flip a coin.

    Why they don’t put tracking devices on these work furlough inmates is beyond me. I am sure the costs would be outweighed by the liability lawsuits on their criminal action while on the loose. Once again, who the heck is in charge–just common sense???
