Jail staff then went back to check the cells to make sure all inmates were accounted for and confirmed that Goble had been falsely released, according to the outlet.<\/p>\n<p>Sheriff Aaron Wilson reportedly put together a group to locate Goble and investigate how she managed to escape. The Sheriff\u2019s Office also said they would implement new security measures in order to prevent future incidents from happening, according to KMIZ.<\/p>\n<p>The Sheriff\u2019s Department believed that Goble was still in the area and that she did not pose a threat to herself or anyone, KMIZ reported. However, they urged citizens to exercise extreme caution if confronted by her, according to the outlet.<\/p>\n<p>45-year-old Charlie \u201cMikey\u201d Everitt managed to escape a California prison in April. At the time, he was the seventh inmate to escape from jail in Merced County in 2021, Fox News reported.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Source; <a href=\"https:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2021\/09\/01\/sheriffs-department-inmate-escaped-missouri\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Daily Caller<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Police pin hopes on \u2018rainbow cars\u2019 to drive out hate crime<\/h3>\n<p>Yeah, putting rainbow livery on your cars is really gonna change the world.

You no longer see a police car or a police officer who is there to support everyone, from all political persuasions, without fear or favour.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey have literally tied their colours to the mast and painted their cars with their political leanings. They are painting rainbows on their cars when we have figures showing that only seven per cent of violent crime ends in a prosecution.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey have moved from policing crime to policing thoughts and speech, because it is easier.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>More at the source; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.telegraph.co.uk\/news\/2021\/08\/22\/police-pin-hopes-rainbow-cars-drive-hate-crime\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Telegraph<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Finally, in our last piece we have another contender for the dumbest move of the year here.
