Perrymore v. State

Appellant was the duly elected and acting sheriff of Logan County, and as such was the legal custodian of the prisoners confined in the jails of that county. He was indicted for permitting two of these prisoners to escape. One of these prisoners was named Richard Warren Holly, the other was named Ed Kle-ier, and both were under indictment for the commission of a felony. Appellant was suspended temporarily from his office upon the return of the indictment against him, and upon his conviction, his removal from office was made permanent, and he has prosecuted this appeal to reverse that judgment.
