Trenton,
NJ — A Mercer County grand jury indicted Terrence Brewer today on a
single-count of escape, Mercer County Prosecutor Daniel G. Giaquinto
announced.
Brewer
(DOB 6/4/63) escaped from the Mercer County Correction Center in Hopewell
Township on August 30, 2001, while awaiting sentencing on a June 2001 murder
conviction.
Brewer
remained on the lam until September 5 when he surrendered to Trenton police in
front of the The Times building on
Perry Street. He is currently in
New Jersey State Prison serving a sentence of 102 plus years without the
possibility of parole.
Consistent
with his announcement on October 23, 2001, Prosecutor Giaquinto reiterated
that it is not anticipated that there will be any further criminal charges
arising out of the escape episode.
Assistant Prosecutor Kimm Lacken presented the case to the grand jury.
