The 2015 Clinton Correctional Facility escape took place on June 6, 2015, when two inmates, Richard Matt and David Sweat, were discovered missing during a 5:30 a.m. bed check at the maximum security Clinton Correctional Facility. Both were serving life without parole for murder. Nearly three weeks later, Matt was found at Malone, New York, where he was shot and killed; and two days after that, Sweat was shot and taken into custody. The manhunt and investigation was said to cost about $23 million.
