3 Inmates Escape from Jail in California - Olivia Browne (Period 6)

A manhunt is underway for three inmates who cut through steel bars, made their way through plumbing tunnels and rappelled off a roof to break out of a maximum-security jail in California.
The group, which includes a man charged with murder, fled the prison on foot Friday, Orange County Sheriff's Lt. Jeff Hallock told reporters.

Analysis: The Authors are Catherine E. Shoichet, Tim Hume and Chandler Friedman and they appear to be a non-biased party. This article was created on January 25th, 2016, right after the incident had taken place, adding to the urgency. I had no prior knowledge of this event. The audience is the concerned American republic and this story has a negative effect on them. The reason for writing this article was to educate the American public on these occurrences. This directly relates to the prison reforms happening thanks to Dorithea Dix in the early 1800's.
