KENOSHA, Wis. (AP) -- Authorities are looking for a Milwaukee man and felony murder convict who escaped from a minimum security facility in Kenosha.
A spokesman for the state Department of Corrections says 29-year-old Eric Adams ran from officers about 5:30 p.m. Friday after they found him talking on a cell phone in his room.
Spokesman John Dipko says Adams fled through an unlocked door at the Kenosha Correctional Center, which has no perimeter fence and is primarily for inmates on work release.
Dipko says Adams was serving a 20-year sentence for a 1999 felony murder-armed robbery but was up for parole this October. He says Adams had earned his spot at the minimum security facility through good behavior.

How do the State justify detaining a FELONY MURDER prisoner in a minimum security prison. The guy was in for a murder that occured during an armed robbery just ten years ago. There are people in maximum security that are far less dangerous.
