A man who was committed to a sex offender treatment facility nearly fifteen years ago was caught in another state after reportedly escaping by putting his ankle monitor on a dummy he left in his bed.

On May 15, an inpatient at the Minnesota Sex Offender Treatment Program campus in St. Peter reportedly used a gimmick to trick the staff so he could leave the facility without being detected.
