KUSA, Colo. — Colorado’s most prolific prison escapee, Douglas Alward, is back in the same prison that he escaped more than three years ago, according to the Colorado Department of Corrections.
“Maybe these people have learned their lesson and will do better in round 2 (or round 8.) I doubt it,” wrote Douglas Alward, referring to DOC, in a letter to 9Wants to Know.
Alward questions the decision to send him back to Sterling. Alward was transferred from the Colorado State Penitentiary on Dec. 16, 2013, and into the highest secured area of Sterling known as administrative segregation.
“I know a lot more about their security procedures including those implemented after I escaped,” Alward wrote.
Alward claims he has had access to Sterling operational memoranda during his court proceedings.
DOC spokesman Roger Hudson says prisoners are moved frequently.
