GG Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Lots of WNY ties to the story and pretty tense situation in North Country. Day 5 and counting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BUFFALOKIE Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 (edited) I haven't read anything more than the headlines. What were these dudes in for? A successful prison break in this day and age is pretty dang impressive. Edited June 10, 2015 by SAMMY HANDWICH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LB3 Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 I haven't read anything more than the headlines. What were these dudes in for? A successful prison break in this day and age is pretty dang impressive. One dismembered a North Tonawanda man and then killed a guy in a bar in Mexico when he was on the run. The other killed a cop.

Prickly Pete Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 (edited) I grew up with Ricky Matt, and was around him since we were about 9. Played LL baseball, hung around the Boy's Club, went to the same Junior High. He was always destructive, into highly risky behavior, and into intimidation/humiliation....girls loved him.

Chef Jim Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Having grown up 3 miles from Attica I'm fascinated by prison breaks. They'd have at least one guy walk off the farm every summer and they'd set a roadblock in front of our house. Good fun for a kid on a boring summer day. They actually caught a guy by our house.

Prickly Pete Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 (edited) Is he the one that is well endowed? Haha, I saw that quote from Bentley. I know a number of women whose husbands are likely asking them "So, what exactly did you see in that guy?" Foels described him very well. Ricky Matt was someone you didn't want to see.

BringBackFergy Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Clint Eastwood starred in the real story of Alcatraz. If they want to catch these guys, some Hollywood producer should issue a press release that these two will be played by Justin Bieber and Gilbert Godfrey. Ricky Matt would turn himself in.
