Lansing Inmate Sentenced for Escape

(MSC News)--A Lansing Correctional Facility inmate has been sentenced to an additional ten years for escaping from the prison in 2013.

53-year-old Scott Gilbert was handed the sentence Wednesday in Leavenworth County District Court on a charge of aggravated escape from custody.

Gilbert was found guilty of the charge earlier this month following a bench trial.  

He and two other inmates escaped from the Lansing facility in May 2013.

Gilbert was sentenced last year to 128 years in prison in Platte County, Missouri on ten felonies for crimes committed after his escape.

At the time of his escape, he was serving a prison sentence for burglary and theft.
