Prison escape

A prison escape (referred as a bust out, breakout, jailbreak, or prison break) is the act of an inmate leaving prison through unofficial or illegal ways. Normally, when this occurs, an effort is made by authorities to recapture them and return them to their original detainers. Escaping from prison is also a criminal offense in some countries, such as the United States and Russia, and it is highly likely to result in time being added to the inmate’s sentence, and the inmate being placed under increased security. In some other places, it is considered human nature to want to escape from a prison, so escape is not penalized (in the absence of other factors such as threats of violence, actual violence, or property damage).
