WHO SAYS SNAIL MAIL IS USELESS?

An inmate in a German prison figured out a pretty easy way to break out of jail by climbing into a cardboard box and having himself delivered out of the joint by way of express courier. The 42-year-old Turkish citizen who was serving a seven-year sentence is still on the loose. "I was not surprised that an escape happened on my watch,” said chief warden Beate Peters. “For years I had been asking for more security guards from the government. But now they'll have to listen."
