While seven escaped prisoners, including two murder suspects, remain at large after a dramatic jailbreak from a New Orleans jail early Friday morning, Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry ripped the parish’s progressive soft-on-crime policies that he claims aided the escape. 

“The irony of the progressive promises that have been made to this city is clear. New Orleans handed the jail keys to those who vowed to keep criminals out of jail, and sadly, today we see that it worked,” Landry said during a Sunday night press conference. “I hope everyone understands that the video of those prisoners escaping epitomizes a progressive criminal justice system.”

Landry ripped politicians who “pander voters” which he said “lead[s] to a lack of safety and order.”

Donald had also been charged with aggravated battery, possession of a firearm or weapon by a felon and obstruction of justice. Boyd’s other charges were attempted second-degree murder, aggravated battery, illegal carrying of weapons involving a crime, and obstruction of justice.

Miles and Vanburen were each facing charges of battery of a correctional facility employee, among other crimes.

Groves pleaded guilty to manslaughter in October and was awaiting sentencing at the jail.

“If he would have been sentenced by a court system, he most likely would not have had an opportunity to escape,” Landry said during his press conference. 

Authorities warned that the escapees may have traveled to other states. Bounties of $20,000 have been placed on their heads. 

“We’ve had troopers working alongside our local state and federal partners throughout the night and developing more leads,” the Louisiana State Police told Fox News Digital on Monday morning. 

The FBI did not return a comment request. 

The ATF declined to comment.
