Man Breaks Into Prison For Love

Most people want to bust out of a prison, not in – but love makes us do crazy things. Here’s the story of a man who break into a prison not once, not twice but night after night to visit his girlfriend:

The suspect, 33-year-old Daniele E., was arrested in November for scaling a steel fence to break into the prison where his girlfriend was serving time for drug-related offenses, according to the local daily Westfalen-Blatt. On Tuesday, the Bielefeld public prosecutor charged Daniele E. with trespassing and announced a trial date in March.

Lawyer Carsten Ernst, who is representing Daniele E., said he thought the charges were excessive. "Couldn’t we have just laughed this one off and cancelled the trial?" he commented. [...]

Nov. 8 proved to be the fateful night for Daniele E. When prison officials noticed a man climb over the fence and enter the building where the woman was being held, they called the police. Using dogs, the police sniffed the unlucky lover out — in his girlfriend’s cell.

"I love her — we’re engaged!" Daniele E. reportedly pleaded with the arresting officers.
