Florida Escape Probers Testing Forgeries for DNAs

The two convicted murderers who used forged documents to walk out of a Florida prison are not cooperating with investigators trying to find out where they got to phony release letters, police sources said.

Agents have been questioning Joseph Jenkins and Charles Walker at Bay County Jail since they were taken back into custody on Saturday, but neither man has answered any questions about possible accomplices, police said.

Laboratory scientists in Pensacola, Fla., were testing the forged documents for DNA today, using a method called Touch DNA, according to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement.

Touch DNA is a method that analyzes skin cells possibly left on evidence.

FLDE Commissioner Gerald Bailey has indicated that more arrests would be made in connection with the jailbreak.

Agents have pinpointed suspects for possible arrest and are building a case against them, but do not have any arrest warrants at this time, police said this evening.

Jenkins and Walker were apprehended without incident at the Coconut Grove Motor Inn in Panama City on Saturday evening, officials said.

Law enforcement officials believe the two men may have paid someone thousands of dollars to create the forged release paper they used to con officials.

Shortly after 5 p.m. Saturday, about 20 members of the task force surrounded the hotel and told Jenkins and Walker to come out. About a minute later, both men came out with their hands in the air and were taken into custody without incident.
