Description
[75 Wash2d Page 516] Defendant appeals from conviction and sentence for the crime of escape while under charge of a felony. He had been charged with grand larceny by check by information filed September 9, 1966. A warrant was issued. At the time of the filing and issuance of the warrant, [75 Wash2d Page 517] defendant was in custody at Lewiston, Idaho. He waived extradition and the Idaho charge was apparently dropped to permit his return to Washington. While in the Walla Walla County jail on the check charge, defendant and two other prisoners escaped. A week later all three escapees were apprehended in the Blue Mountains in Oregon at a point some 18 miles from Walla Walla. Oregon authorities charged all three individuals with breaking and entering mountain cabins. Again, defendant waived extradition and voluntarily returned to Washington to stand trial on the check charge and the new charge of escape.
