They was caught saturday in panama city, florida. They were on the run after using forged doupts to get an Early Release from prison. Robert ray joins us from outside the courtroom in panama city. You have a lot of information on what these two were up while they were free, but be sure to tell us what happened in court today. Reporter exactly. Both men 34 years old, convicted killers serving live sentences and had documents forged that said to the state they were going to go free because they served 15 years. The documents stated that their 15 years were done and they could go. They left the franklin correctional institution. One on september 27th and one on october 8th. This morning in panama city, bay county judge in the courthouse behind me had the two on a videoconference. Those two killers are at the jail right now, and the judge was here and he sentenced them both with charges of escape, one count each. They are on no bond, and theyre being investigated and questioned by authorities as we speak right now over at the county jail here in bay county. Richelle. Okay. Tell us a little bit more now about what these two were up to while they were free. Reporter well, its interesting. Like i said, they left one of them left on september 27th, another on october 8th. At separate times they made their way back to orlando where they were sentenced, and they went through the process of when you get released from prison, you have to go back to the county and the court where you were sentenced, and you have to have your picture taken, fingerprints taken, and put on the convicted felon list. They did all that, and everything went smooth. They went and hung out with their families. In fact, one of them had a Birthday Party scheduled for him on october 1 st that he never showed up on. They didnt think it was weird. In the past few days, when the story became public and the media found out and the family members found out, the two seemingly met up with each other in orlando somehow, obviously, freaking out they had been discovered. They found their way by we dont know exactly how they made it here to panama city, but they were held up at a hotel, the coconut motor inn, room 227 to be exact. Nearly two dozen of them surrounded the hotel and they got on a speaker and told them that, gentlemen, we are here. Please come out. We have found out. Sure enough, they did come out. They were surprised, from what we hear, that they were found in the hotel. They did not have any weapons on them according to the u. S. Marshals, and that the apprehension went smoothly and they were brought to the jail. The big question is now was this an inside job . Both of these convicted killers were put into prison at ages 19 and 20. Theyre each 34 now, so theyve been in for 15 years. Clearly uneducated men that couldnt have pulled off this without the help of someone else. Florida correction agencies and authorities feeling quite embarrassed at this moment and trying to figure out whether they have an inside person helps these two men and perhaps others, and just good thing that these guys are off the street right now and sort of the state of florida can breathe a sigh of relief.

Gov website have plagued the Program Since it began, and that was a subject of much discussion this morning. We just heard news overnight that the 400,000 or 500,000 approximately people have gone on the website and left some information. That tells us no information as far as how many people enrolled. Thats a relevant matter because if enough people dont sign up for the exchanges, the rates are astronomically and undermine the entire private Health Insurance industry in the country. There are computer glitches. Look, every Major Tech Company has computer glitches. You read about them about apple and all other major tech companies. Those will be solved. The administration is working to do it.

Reporter there may be better news for tennessee and North Carolina. The states may get a partial refund on the money used on get the park back open. Regardless of what happens in washington, d.

Heres a look at the forecast. Temperatures well blov average. Typically we peak in the mid50s, but today with the clouds around and rain changing over to snow, 48 degrees. We drop into the 20s overnight. It looks like we have brighter skies though for our work week ahead. At least the weather will be quiet as far as precipitation is concerned, but temperatures do stay cool. Much of the u. S. Is dry and were watching an upper level disturbance into the four corners. That brings snow into the Higher Elevations of colorado. Across the southwest its been the fog that we dealt with through the morning hours, but very warm temperatures hanging on around los angeles.
