Meeting on the 10th for possible action. If there is any lingering issues or questions, a special meeting could be called the following week. It happened in the past.

So as sweat is talking, what is he saying specifically about how they got out including that sledgehammer that happened to be laying around in the tunnel is. Thats right, brooke. Hes saying it really wasnt that complicated after all. It turns out that sweat told investigators he and richard matt found this sledgehammer to break a brick wall and make a getaway inside the prison and he said a construction worker eventually left the sledgehammer and that there were no power tools involved and the idea to kill mitchelless husband came from mitchell herself. Myth and mitchell were in a sexual relationship and mitchell said the opposite that it was matt and sweats idea to kill her husband and sweat also told investigators that initially, as you mentioned, that he and matt were getting along as they made the getaway bu
