US-CRIME-THOMPSON
This undated handout photo received 04 November 2005 shows death row inmate Charles Victor Thompson. Police in Houston Texas were searching 04 November for a death row convict who changed his clothes and donned a fake law enforcement badge before strolling out of jail, the Harris County Sheriff-s Office said. Convicted killer Charles Victor Thompson, 35, convinced guards at the Harris County jail on 03 November, that he was going to meet his lawyer, according to sheriff-s office spokesman Lieutenant John Martin.Thompson then somehow changed his orange prisoner jumpsuit for casual slacks, a blue shirt and white tennis shoes, and walked out of the jail in the middle of the afternoon waving an apparent badge of an official from the state attorney general-s office, Martin said. "It was convincing enough, he was able to convince one of our deputies to let him out of the facility," said Martin. Thompson was sentenced to death last week for shooting to death his ex-girlfriend and her boyfriend in 1988. AFP PHOTO/HARRIS COUNTY SHERIFF-S OFFICE/HO/RESTRICTED TO EDITORIAL USE= GETTY OUT=
