Escaped convicts!! Run for your lives!!!!!

So just wanted to give a little perspective on the situation with these two fugitives, since it's happening in my neck of the woods.
Long story short, everyone within 100 miles seems to be of the belief that these guys are hiding in the bushes in their backyards. I blame that mindset partially on the media, and partially on people's just general stupidity and eagerness to launch into a blind panic.

I'm of the belief that these guys are about 2 time zones from here by now.
