Escaped Inmate Found Decapitated
2016-04-14
[Daily Caller] An inmate who escaped from a North Carolina county jail on March 27 has been found decapitated, authorities said.

Authorities identified Kelvin Singleton, 26, an escaped inmate, as the headless body found partially decomposed last Thursday in a wooded area.

"He used what we believe to be a makeshift shank -- A knife made out of a toothbrush," Sheriff Dwayne Goodwin told reporters, according to WAVY.

Goodwin emphasized there was no indication anybody assisted Singleton.
That must have taken a great deal of sheer determination, not to mention concentration and a steady hand.
How exactly does one sever a head using a "knife made out of a toothbrush"? That's some toothbrush...

#5  Sounds like they found him right after the escape and "then he got away again".

Palmyra: An old hieroglypher,
Undaunted with Daesh to differ,
Clawed out a last drawing
As Mahmoud was sawing:
"I sure wish this toothbrush were stiffer!"

#2  A vendor of secondhand goods
Fell out with a few of his buds.
His heartfelt remorse
Took a terrible course
When he buried himself in the woods.
