HUTCHINSON, Kan. — A 27-year-old man who was ordered to prison after he violated his community corrections in four cases, then ran from the courtroom on Jan. 5 before he could be taken into custody has now been charged from that incident.
Christopher Maberry is now charged with aggravated escape from custody.
He ran from the courtroom of Judge Trish Rose but was caught after discovering the doors in the Law Enforcement Center were locked. Maberry ran down the long hallway from the Reno County Courthouse to the Law Enforcement Center. He put his hands up when he discovered the doors were locked and told the sheriff’s deputy, who was right behind him, that he was sorry. He was then placed in cuffs and taken to jail.
He was on corrections for burglary, two convictions for theft, three counts of making false writing and obstruction. The cases go back to 2013, 2014 and 2015.
The new case moves to a waiver-status docket on Feb. 7.
