“A New Orleans prison maintenance worker accused of helping 10 violent inmates break out last week was arrested late Monday, according to the Louisiana Attorney General’s Office. Sterling Williams, 33, admitted to cutting off the water in the cells at the Orleans Parish Justice Center so the inmates could pull the toilet from the wall and escape. Only four of the 10 prisoners have been captured as of Tuesday morning, with three other jail employees currently suspended as police investigate the escape. Williams’[s] arrest comes after Orleans Parish Sheriff Susan Hutson revealed that jailbreak was likely an inside job.” (05/20/25)
