Talk:Mecklenburg Correctional Center

This article's name and content
This article should either be re-written to include more details about the actual Center, or it needs to be renamed something like "Escape from Mecklenburg Correctional Centre". The article does not indluce any information about the institution itsself. -Ladybirdintheuk 13:02, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

Willie Lloyd Turner or Willie Jones?
This article says that Willie Jones was one of the six who escaped. However, the Briley Brothers article says that another person called Willie, namely Willie Lloyd Turner, "stepped in the way" to stop James Briley from tossing a lit match. That sounds like Turner was one of the six who escaped. The list of individuals executed in Virginia shows that both a Willie Jones (in 1992) and a Willie Lloyd Turner (in 1995) were executed in Virginia. So who was is that stepped in the way? Who was it that escaped? If Turner was not one of the six, how could he have "stepped in the way", unless it is meant in a figurative sense (for instance, Turner still being locked up, but being able to persuade James Briley not to do it from his cell)? This needs clarification and/or correction. wjmt 01:05, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
