From the great State of Washington, that would be this one:
Insane killer escapes on field trip to county fair
A criminally insane killer from eastern Washington is on the run after escaping during a field trip to the county fair that his mental hospital organized.
Was that before the petting zoo or after the ferris wheel ride, or was it when he left the group to buy cotton candy?
You really can’t make this stuff up!

Makes you wonder just how “insane” he really is if he was able to escape. And I read somewhere that this wasn’t his first time escaping either. Apparently he also escaped during an outing in 1990.

Now we all know that those wise people running the nut boxes wouldn’t let inmates,that could pose a threat to society, run loose…would they???

The insane murderer has surrendered and been arrested, not entirely without incident.

I lived in Medical Lake for a couple of years in the 1980’s (That’s where the mental hospital is). They were doing this sort of thing back then, and they had a couple of similar incidents. Apparently, they aren’t big on learning from their mistakes.
