Authorities in Oregon announced a murder suspect who was mistakenly released from prison earlier this week is back in custody after igniting a multi-day manhunt. 

Ty Anthony Sage, 26, was accidentally released from the Multnomah County Detention Center in Portland after posting bail on Monday, according to the sheriff’s office. 

“Ty Sage should never have been able to post bail,” Sheriff Nicole Morrisey O’Donnell said in a press release.

“To the family of Lowgunn Ivey, the young man killed, I want to acknowledge the fear and trauma that this mistaken release has caused,” Morrisey O’Donnell said. 

The victim’s mother, Jodie Ramsey, expressed her frustration surrounding the incident while sharing her relief that her son’s alleged killer had been found, according to FOX 12. 

“I feel like they failed me,” Ramsey told the outlet. “I feel like they failed the community as well, not just me, but everybody else’s safety out there, too, because he’s an accused child killer. I mean, there’s no saying what he could do to anybody out there.”

Ramsey is reportedly considering filing a lawsuit against the county, but has yet to make a final decision. 

MCSO did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment. 

“Having to relive the whole thing,” Ramsey said. “I mean, I’m going to end up living with it for the rest of my life anyway, but it’s just having to open some wounds that haven’t quite healed yet, that’s killing me, I think.”
