Borrowing a page from El Chapo, Stewart Rhodes installed "elaborate escape tunnels" in his backyard, according to this ex-wife.👀

Also: "...hid unregistered cars in the woods"

1. Nothing says "Not a flight risk" like "elaborate escape tunnels."

[Budi]

2. Really! This order is from a Tx judge, too.

Rhodes probably thought a Tx judge would send him home

[johnp3907]

3. Yep.

And I want to know more about these tunnels. Do they come out in Mexico? Did Mexico pay for them?

7. Or the drug cartels - that is one of their smuggling strategies afterall, right?

(Nothing says "I'm innocent" more than building escape routes! Or did his father mate with an Aardvark?)

8. Probably inspired by "Rambo: Last Blood" rather than El Chapo

even if the movie probably got the idea from El Chapo.

I would post a clip but it's all ultra-violent murder-porn. That garbage was playing on the breakroom TV constantly for a couple of weeks. Did you know you could cut through a person's ribs and sternum like birthday cake?

16. Where do they tunnels come out?

Probably in the neighbor's yard -- just so he could get a head start in case the FBI came knocking. Because the Feds wouldn't think of setting up a perimeter or anything like that.

4. What?! 😄

5. LOL

[calimary]

9. No shit...

[Cha]

6. Rt TY Good News!

[Grokenstein]

10. All that tinfoil-hat prepwork and he still got nailed.

Please try to keep this lunatic locked up, guys.

[ZonkerHarris]

11. So he knew he would need to escape the authorities

[KS Toronado]

12. Maybe he was prepping for the zombies.

13. These fuckers had to be descendants

of the preppers. Remember those nut jobs? They buried metal containers in the ground, lived in abandoned silos, stored 100's of gallons of water and food. Y2K was going to be a world calamity.

There are plenty of these nut jobs running loose and now they are running for political offices.

The average IQ of the US has to be in double digits.

[Budi]

14. Yup! Descendants of Y2K preppers. There's an approaching calamity round every corner.

And they're always the 1st one's to know about it.

[The Unmitigated Gall]

15. Well, if I was an innocent man unjustly accused...

I would certainly have dug a system of tunnels and pre-positioned unregistered cars in the nearby woods.

It’s just common sense.

[Hassler]

17. What a no surprise, his ex-wife hated him enough to help keep him in jail.

Enjoy the prison cuisine, Stew.
