Bulloch Sheriff’s Office Releases Statement on Wednesday’s Inmate Escape

The Bulloch County Sheriff’s Office released this statement on the escape from the Bulloch County Judicial Annex on Wednesday, August 22.
The inmate was being housed for Candler County.

“On August 21st at approximately 2:20 p.m. an inmate escaped from custody while being transferred from the Judicial Annex back to the Bulloch County Jail. Inmate Caleb Scott was able to push past the
deputy while being loaded onto a transport van. The deputy was unable to pursue due to the fact he
also had two other inmates in custody.

Patrol deputies and canine units immediately surrounded the area. A drone was deployed within a few minutes of the escape. Once a secure perimeter was established deputies began a search of the area and located the suspect near Truist Bank, a short distance from the Judicial Annex. Scott was still in restraints when he was located.

He was transported back to the Bulloch County Jail and then transferred to the Department of Corrections. Scott will be charged with felony escape.”
