ESCAPED PRISONERS PAST CAPTURES

FILE - In this June 2, 1984 file photo, Derrick Lynn Peterson, second from left, and Earl Clanton Jr., far right, are escorted from the Warren County jail to a waiting van in Warrenton, N.C. after they were recaptured following their prison break. Peterson and Clanton escaped with four other death row inmates from the Meckeinberg Correctional Center in Boydton, Va., the previous day. As the hunt for two escaped killers in New York stretches to almost a week, a review of past high-profile escapes shows most do in fact get caught sooner or later, tripped up by any number of missteps or miscalculations.
