I think we should just forget about his escape;
After being on the run for 16 years, a South Dakota fugitive has been arrested in Canada.
Clifford Laframboise was on South Dakota’s most wanted list for years and now, is behind bars again.
He’s been a man on the run for more than a decade.
Depite the fact that his face has been plasterd on wanted posters across the country, Clifford Laframboise was able to avoid an arrest for 16 years.
Been on the run? LMAO! He may have been running when he was leaving Sioux Falls 16 years ago, but it seems he has been living comfortably in Canada since then. I think if anyone has been able to elude law enforcement this long, we should jut forget about it. It’s not like he murdered someone. As for his Canadian crimes, he should have to serve time for them, in Canada. But why waste SD taxpayer’s money on a Canadian citizen for crimes that have long been forgotten about?
Heck, it sounds like he kept his record cleaner over the last 16 years than Kristi Noem did.
Yeah screw it, if you can escape and not be caught for 2 days your free to go!
The point is he was sentenced and being punished for committing crime. He violated trust that he was given and did not serve his time. It’s not about what crime it was, but about his escaping.
Jim’s correct. It’s not like the guy learned his lesson from his first incarceration and was a model citizen, even by Canadian standards.
I like this quote:
“When they escape it’s very concerning irregardless of what the crime,” said Detective Kooistra.
That mangled grammer is a crime in and of itself.
The one and only time escape is justified is when the escapee is innocent. And I don’t mean they claim to be innocent, I mean they are actually innocent.
There was one such case several years back where an innocent man escaped from prison. He was caught, but it was later proven he hadn’t committed the original crime (which wasn’t even in dispute) yet the state continued to lock him up for the escape itself.
Sounds like a made for television movie, but I assure you it actually happened and they were interviewing the guy in prison for the story.
In that case, that state’s governor should have stepped in and wiped his record clean… but my point is I can justify escape in that case, because being behind bars for something you didn’t do is an almost guaranteed way to destroy a person’s soul.
Sometimes I wonder if Sioux Falls police only catch the ones caught by real police. Focus on the casino robberies and let the canadians keep this one.
That was kinda my point, if he is guilty of sex crimes in Canada, let him serve time there first and save SD taxpayers some money.
