Investigators say Iracks was arrested in Washington D.C. on June 1 after police there responded to a domestic disturbance and quickly realized Iracks was wanted by federal law enforcement.
“As it turns out Iracks was involved in numerous domestic disturbances while he was on escape status,” said Al Maresca, Deputy U.S. Marshal with the Marshals Service. “This individual was afforded the opportunity to reintegrate back into society and become a law abiding citizen. Unfortunately he chose otherwise and put public safety at risk.”
Iracks is one of more than a half-dozen people to escape from Volunteers of America, prompting questions about the re-entry facility including how inmates are selected and the threat to public safety.
