On Thursday morning, August 18, 2011, Lucas Wayne French, 29, was arrested by South Dakota DCI Special Agents and Brookings, SD, Police Officers on an Escape Charge from Beltrami County. French was being held at the Beltrami County jail on assault charges and maltreatment of a child, stemming from an incident involving sword fighting on July 12, 2011 in rural Beltrami County.
French had been given "Huber" (work release) privileges by the court and was working at a local business when he left on a break and didn't return to work. It was discovered that French had also taken money from his employer before disappearing. French's companion Carmen Faye Monroe, 31, of Bemidji, was arrested in South Dakota on Charges of Aiding and Abetting the escape. French and Monroe left Bemidji with two children who they did not have legal custody of and these children were recovered unharmed by the police.
French was located by Beltrami County Sheriff's Investigators with assistance from several law enforcement agencies including the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension, Brookings, SD Police and the South Dakota Division of Criminal Investigation.
