LEAVENWORTH COUNTY — The search continues for an inmate who escaped from a satellite camp at the Leavenworth Penitentiary, according to a statement from the U.S. Bureau of Prisons.
Just after 4p.m. Nov. 10, authorities discovered 50-year-old James Thompson was missing.
Thompson is described as white male with brown hair and brown eyes. He’s 6-foot-2 and weighs approximately 202 pounds.
U.S. Marshals and the FBI were informed that he’s missing from the minimum security facility.
Last week, a federal grand jury indicted James Thompson on one count of escape from custody.
Thompson was sentenced to 80 months in prison in the Northern District of Georgia for mail fraud.
