Fifth New Orleans inmate recaptured following escape

  • Louisiana State Police apprehended Corey Boyd, one of ten inmates who broke out of the Orleans Parish lockup in New Orleans during the early hours of May 16, 2025.
  • The inmates escaped after the only officer assigned to their unit briefly left, allowing them to remove a toilet, access a loading dock, climb a fence, and cross Interstate 10.
  • Boyd, wanted for a 2024 car burglary murder, was caught Tuesday evening at an apartment complex in Treme, while four others were previously recaptured and five remain at large.
  • Authorities arrested maintenance worker Sterling Williams the same day on charges including malfeasance and escape assistance, and officials described the breakout as a "coordinated effort" involving inside help.
  • The escape prompted a lockdown, an official audit, and calls from state officials for investigations into jail operations and security flaws to restore public trust.
