Mass exodus from Brazilian jail after women seduce the guards

It sounds like a movie plot, but Brazilian police confirmed it happened: in early February 2015, 28 prisoners escaped from the public jail in Nova Mutum, in the state of Mato Grosso, after three women seduced and drugged the guards.

The women arrived dressed as policewomen — a bag of lingerie and dominatrix-style police uniforms was later found at the scene — and invited the guards to share whisky laced with a sedative. The next morning, the warden and other guards were found naked and handcuffed. The women had taken their keys, unlocked the cells, and, as police chief Angelina de Andrades Ferreira told a news conference: "The plan was to seduce them. They served them cheap whisky with some substance to knock them out, then unlocked the central gate which accesses the internal cells. Whoever wanted to escape left by the front door."

The prisoners even took guns and ammunition with them. Police believe the plot was orchestrated by inmate Bruno Amorim, who was being held on an attempted-murder charge, with his girlfriend and two other women carrying it out. Eight of the 28 escapees were recaptured in the days that followed.
