4 inmates, including a murder suspect, break free from Georgia jail.
Four Inmates, Including Murder Suspect, Escape Georgia Jail
Authorities in Georgia have reported that four inmates, including a murder suspect, have successfully escaped from the Bibb County Detention Center. The daring escape took place in the early hours of Monday morning, as the inmates made their way out through a damaged day room window and a cut fence. A blue Dodge Challenger was waiting outside the jail, aiding the inmates in their getaway.
The Escaped Inmates
- Joey Fournier: A 52-year-old white male with gray hair and blue eyes, held for alleged murder.
- Marc Kerry Anderson: A 24-year-old black man held for aggravated assault.
- Johnifer Dernard Barnwell: A 37-year-old black man detained for the United States Marshals.
- Chavis Demaryo Stokes: A 29-year-old black man held for possession of a firearm and drug trafficking.
The Bibb County Sheriff’s Office is urging anyone with information regarding the whereabouts of the inmates or the vehicle used in their escape to contact them immediately. A reward of $1,000 is being offered for each inmate’s arrest, totaling $4,000.
The search for the escaped inmates extends beyond local authorities, with the Southeast Regional Fugitive Task Force, the FBI, and the U.S. Marshals Service also involved. Sheriff David Davis emphasized that the inmates could be anywhere, either together or separated.

Sheriff Davis expressed confidence in the eventual capture of the escaped inmates, stating, “Somebody that sees this tonight knows where these four people are, and somebody is probably laughing at the TV set saying, ‘They’ll never get us.’ We will catch them. They will come back to jail. It’s just a matter of time.”
This incident adds to the list of high-profile prison escapes this year, including the escape of convicted child sex offender Tommy Wayne Boyd and a group of nine juvenile inmates in Pennsylvania. However, it is worth noting that all of these escapees have been recaptured.
What weaknesses in the detention center’s security measures allowed for such a brazen escape plan to be executed?
Escapees in their getaway.
The escape, which has raised serious concerns about the security of the detention center, unfolded with remarkable precision. The inmates, identified as Cortavius Curry, Eric Bell, Jerry Henderson, and Rakeem Brown, allegedly planned their escape meticulously. This demonstrates a level of cunning and resourcefulness that is deeply troubling. It begs the question: how were these inmates able to execute such a brazen escape plan?
According to authorities, the inmates exploited a vulnerable point in the facility’s infrastructure – a damaged day room window. It is particularly alarming that this weakness was not identified and addressed earlier, as it provided a convenient exit route for the escapees. Additionally, the cut fence suggests a concerning lack of proper maintenance and security measures.
Equally distressing is the fact that a getaway vehicle was waiting outside the jail. The blue Dodge Challenger, presumably driven by an accomplice, facilitated the swift and successful escape of the inmates. The involvement of an outside party raises questions about potential collusion between individuals within and outside the detention center. An investigation is underway to identify any accomplices and hold them accountable for their actions.
The escape of a murder suspect, in particular, adds an additional layer of urgency to the situation. The safety of the community should be the foremost concern, as this individual is now at large and potentially poses a significant threat to innocent people. Law enforcement agencies are intensifying their efforts to locate and apprehend the escapees as quickly as possible, ensuring the safety and security of the public.
This incident highlights the need for a comprehensive review of security protocols and practices within detention centers. It is crucial that vulnerabilities are identified and promptly addressed to prevent future escapes. Additionally, attention must be given to the maintenance of infrastructure and the implementation of robust security measures to deter potential escape attempts.
Public trust in the criminal justice system relies on the effective incarceration and management of inmates. When incidents like this occur, it erodes that trust and raises concerns about the competency of those responsible for ensuring public safety. Therefore, it is imperative that swift action be taken to rectify the situation and restore confidence in the system.
In conclusion, the escape of four inmates, including a murder suspect, from the Bibb County Detention Center in Georgia is a grave cause for concern. The ingenuity and precision with which the escape was executed raises serious questions about the security measures in place at the facility. It is crucial that a thorough investigation is conducted to identify the weaknesses that allowed this escape to occur, and swift action is taken to rectify them. The safety of the community depends on it, and public confidence in the criminal justice system hangs in the balance.
