Speaker 6: and women who are guilty of crimes ranging from chicken
Speaker 6: theft or murder. But this man, well.
Speaker 3: You'll see what he was like.
Speaker 6: Suppose we begin exactly a year ago on a cold,
Speaker 6: dreary Sunday morning in the city of Tacoma, Washington, the
Speaker 6: vestibule of a small church fought from the Cooma's business section,
Speaker 6: A young man with piercing brown eyes and thin lips
Speaker 6: stood watching the congregation file out at the completion of services.
Speaker 6: It was evident that he was looking for a particular worshiper,
Speaker 6: and after a few minutes he saw him.
Speaker 3: All right, fuck, where you going, Dave? What were you
Speaker 3: praying for me?
Speaker 7: This is the surprise of my life, Dave.
Speaker 3: Let's go over there out of the crowd.

Speaker 8: come on, kid, Yeah, okay.
Speaker 3: So it's a surprise of your life. All right? Yeah?
Speaker 3: I thought they gave you five years.
Speaker 8: Wasn't there nothing in the papers about my breaking out? No?
Speaker 8: I didn't see anything. Yes, I have to speak to
Speaker 8: my press agent. Honest, Dave, I gotta be going. I'm
Speaker 8: why are you worried about Rick? Look if you're worried
Speaker 8: because you think I know you shot your mouth off
Speaker 8: when the cops picked you up, forget it. I know
Speaker 8: you were on a spot. I couldn't help, But Dave,
Speaker 8: I say, forget it. Every guy's gotta save his own skin.
Speaker 8: I only got five years out of it. What's five years?
Speaker 8: They put you on probation, I hear. Is that why
Speaker 8: you go to church? You want to make an impression? Yeah,
Speaker 8: I want to make an impression the smart boy Rick.
Speaker 8: You mean there wasn't a thing in the papers about
Speaker 8: my busting on?
Speaker 3: No.
Speaker 8: Oh, at least they should have told you Rick. After all,
Speaker 8: they might have figured I'd be out to get you,
Speaker 8: since it's on.
Speaker 3: A kind of you I was in. I told you
Speaker 3: I couldn't help. But Dave, you know I'm not the
Speaker 3: kind of carried grudges, don't you? Yeah?
Speaker 8: Yeah, David, Well, what's your hurry? I waited a long
Speaker 8: time for you, Rick. We can have a few words
Speaker 8: for all the times saying can't we I told you
Speaker 8: I got some people waiting. You know something, Rick, I've
Speaker 8: been a lot of places since I broke out.
Speaker 3: Saw a leg, Buke, Seattle, Denver. Did it all right too?
Speaker 3: Did you well?
Speaker 8: I got about four grand in my pocket right now.
Speaker 8: You figure it out. Now, I'm planning another tour. How'd
Speaker 8: you like to come along with me? Look, Dave, I
Speaker 8: got a good job.
Speaker 3: Now, and you got to church every Sunday? Was there
Speaker 3: anything wrong in that? I got a break, and I
Speaker 3: want to stay out of trouble.
Speaker 8: I got a break too then I five years.

Speaker 3: I got to have an outfit. Are you sure you
Speaker 3: ain't interested? Rick?
Speaker 8: To be honest, Dave, No, there's nothing I like more
Speaker 8: than an honest guy. Okay, I'll get my outfit A
Speaker 8: couple of guys back there. When I broke out, I
Speaker 8: promised him i'd come back for him. I broke out
Speaker 8: of the place. I can break back in to get him,

Speaker 8: After all, I've been away a while. Okay, Dave, wherever
Speaker 8: you say? How about the hunt is two o'clock? Okay,
Speaker 8: all right, I guess I can make it. Sure you
Speaker 8: can make it. If I let you, you'd have had
Speaker 8: at least forty cops there for a company, you know
Speaker 8: what I mean, or at I don't know. I hope
Speaker 8: you said good prayers and there, Hey, don't shoot me,
Speaker 8: please don't.
Speaker 3: Right, Well done.
Speaker 6: Tacoma police said no difficulty fixing the guilt in that shooting,
Speaker 6: but the escaped convict, David Blackwell is not to be found.
Speaker 6: One midnight less than a week later, two trustees were
Speaker 6: on all night duty in the prison power plant at
Speaker 6: the Monroe Reformatory, from which David Blackwell had escaped, and
Speaker 6: the loan guard left him to go to the power
