MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) - Alabama corrections officials say a work
release inmate who escaped from the Decatur center has been found
in Tennessee but is refusing to sign an extradition waiver.
Corrections spokesman Brian Corbett said 26-year-old Josh Hamer
was recaptured in Ardmore, Tenn. on Tuesday afternoon and is in the
custody of the Giles County Sheriff's Department there.
Hamer was discovered missing around 3:50 a.m. during a bed count
early Wednesday.
He was sentenced to 15 years for breaking and entering a vehicle
and theft of property. His next parole date is May 2010.
Corbett said the department has started the process to have a
judge order that Hamer be extradited back to Alabama.
