The manhunt for convicted killer Danelo Cavalcante has now entered its eighth day with details beginning to emerge about how he managed to escape from prison in Pennsylvania. Cavalcante, 34, escaped from Chester County Prison days after he was sentenced to life without parole for stabbing his ex-girlfriend Deborah Brandao, 31, to death in front of her two small children. He is also wanted for a 2017 murder in Brazil. Authorities said during a press conference on Wednesday that he broke out by climbing onto a prison building roof from one of the exercise yards. Newly released surveillance video shows Cavalcante crawling up a wall at the prison before he disappears from the frame. Police said that he later managed to jump down to an area of the prison that had less surveillance. A tower officer tasked with observing the site failed to report the incident and Cavalcante’s escape was only noticed later during a head count. He was last spotted near Chandler Road, Pennsbury Township, on Tuesday evening. Local and federal law enforcement searched the area for hours but did not locate the fugitive. Members of the public are urged to secure their homes from the dangerous killer.

A grand jury hearing evidence in the federal investigation into Donald Trump’s handling of classified documents is expected to reconvene this week, according to a new report. The news signals that Special Counsel Jack Smith’s probe into the former president may be moving closer to a possible indictment, according to NBC News. The grand jury has been hearing evidence and witness testimony for several months, but had been on a recent hiatus, according to the report. Prosecutors are investigating whether Mr Trump mishandled classified documents and later obstructed efforts to retrieve them. The development comes after CNN revealed that the Trump legal team had been unable to locate a classified document he referred to on tape. The network had earlier broke the news that a recording existed of the former president acknowledging that he had held onto a classified Pentagon document outlining a potential attack on Iran. Attorneys for Mr Trump could not find the document he referred to when they turned over material in mid-March in response to a federal subpoena relating to the investigation, according to the report. Mr Trump has already been indicted in New York on state charges that he paid illegal hush money payments in the lead up to the 2016 presidential election. But should Mr Smith move forward with the indictment, it would be the first time a sitting or former US president has faced federal charges. Mr Trump has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing. In June 2022, FBI agents visited his private club Mar-a-Lago to retrieve documents he had taken with him when he left the White House. Mr Trump turned over 38 classified documents, and his attorneys pledged in writing that they had completed a thorough search of the property. The Justice Department obtained a search warrant for the former president’s home in August, and later said they retrieved 300 papers marked classified. Mr Trump’s attorneys sought to blame the oversight on White House staff in a letter to Congress in April. He could face charges relating to the handling of classified documents or obstructing investigators from recovering the materials. Mr Trump has previously said that he had the power to declassify documents simply by “thinking about it”.
