DANNEMORA, N.Y.—Investigators believe a prison employee had agreed to be the getaway driver in last weekend’s escape by two killers, but she never showed up, a person close to the investigation told The Associated Press on Thursday.
The person said that was one reason the manhunt was focused on the woods only a few miles from the maximum-security Clinton Correctional Facility. The person was not authorized to discuss the investigation and spoke on condition of anonymity.
