HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) â The U.S. Marshals service is increasing its reward from $1,500 to up to $2,500 for information leading to the arrest of an inmate who escaped from a Connecticut state prison. Twenty-five-year-old Jerry Mercado escaped from the Carl Robinson Correctional Facility in Enfield on January 7th. Mercado was sentenced in August 2016 to three years for burglary. The U.S. Marshals Violent Fugitive Task Force announced Tuesday it was offering a larger reward for information leading to Mercado's arrest. Authorities believe Mercado may have stowed away in the undercarriage of a garbage truck or state vehicle to escape.
Prisoners also are paid for their workâ7-dollars-50 cents a month. If they have their GED, they can earn an extra dollar. Thatâs about 35 cents a day. Eddy says the direct costs of each inmate every day is $16.39 a day. The other $28 go for the administrative and prison personnel, utilities, and other costs that go with running a prison. Per my calculations, that amounts to $16,308.20 per year, which is 26 percent smaller than the federal poverty line of $22,050 â and less than I would have expected. A quick search of the per-inmate expenditures in peer states suggests that Missouri ranks toward the bottom in its per-inmate expenditures. It is interesting that the direct costs of each inmate amount to only 37 percent of the total cost per each inmate.
