Ten inmates, several accused of murder, escaped from a New Orleans jail early Friday morning by tearing out a toilet and crawling through a wall, leaving behind taunting graffiti that read "To Easy LoL," authorities said.
The Orleans Parish Jail, located just two miles from the French Quarter, has a history of security lapses and overcrowding, BBC reported. The latest escape comes in light of heightened scrutiny of jail conditions and staffing levels.
