Major security upgrades are planned for a Pennsylvania prison after Danilo Cavalcante's escape led to an intense 14-day manhunt, authorities pledged at a town hall meeting.Cavalcante was convicted of first-degree murder in the fatal stabbing of his former girlfriend in 2021 and sent to Chester County Prison. On August 31 this year, just days after receiving a mandatory life sentence without the possibility of parole, the 34-year-old escaped by crab-walking up the walls of a narrow exterior hallway in the exercise yard.The improvements include the fixing of a simple metal screen to stop future would-be escapees gaining access to the prison roof.
