The final Orleans Parish Jail escapee to be captured is back in Louisiana and back behind bars.
Derrick Groves is now in the Angola State Penitentiary after authorities returned him to Louisiana from Georgia on Friday. State troopers, FBI agents, and federal marshals flew to Atlanta to pick up Groves and to shuttle him to Baton Rouge. After arriving in Baton Rouge, authorities put Groves on a state police helicopter, which took Groves on the nearly 40-mile trek to the maximum security prison.
Georgia authorities arrested Groves on Wednesday in a suburban Atlanta neighborhood. Groves had been on the run since May, when he and nine other men broke out of the Orleans Parish Jail.
Louisiana officials say more arrests in the case are possible.
