An Osawatomie woman who helped a psychiatric patient escape from the Osawatomie State Hospital has been sentenced for the crime. Twenty year-old Jamey Anderson admitted in November to aiding in an escape and obstruction. As part of the plea deal, prosecutors dropped two charges against her, including unlawful sexual relations with a patient. Anderson was sentenced in Miami County District Court to one year and six months of probation for her role in helping 18-year-old Salvador Reyes, to escape from the Osawatomie State Hospital.
The hospital notified police in August that Anderson and Reyes, a patient at the hospital, were missing. Surveillance video showed Anderson passing, what appeared to be a key, to Reyes. The video then showed Reyes walking out of the hospital. The two were found several hours later near Hillsdale State Lake
