Jail Mail

It must be true because I read it in the tabloids. There is an escaped prisoner in Germany who mailed himself out of jail. This man, Hans Lang, who was serving time for drug offenses, allegedly hid himself inside a large Federal Express package of dirty sheets that was later picked up for delivery.

Once clear of the prison grounds, Lang exited the box, picked the lock on the door of the delivery truck, and disappeared into some woods in Dusseldorf. He has yet to be found.

Gives a whole new meaning to that saying: “Never air your dirty linen in public.”
