The four inmates were discovered missing about 7 a.m. Thursday during a routine check, about 30 minutes after they were seen at breakfast. Authorities said they apparently climbed out through the top bars and a vent to the roof at the Wichita County Jail Annex, which is undergoing construction.
Perry calls more penalties for traffickers
HOUSTON — Gov. Rick Perry is proposing new laws to stiffen penalties for human trafficking in the state.
Texas enacted a human trafficking law in 2003, and a statewide human trafficking task force attached to the Texas Attorney General’s Office activated in January.
During an appearance Thursday in Houston, Perry says human trafficking preys on hopes and dreams of victims promised better lives for themselves and families. Instead, he says what awaits victims is a life of confinement, prostitution, abuse and early death.
