Iowa man gets 15 years for escaping jail

FORT DODGE — An Iowa jail inmate who escaped from the facility in August has been sentenced to 15 more years behind bars. A Webster County judge rejected 43-year-old Jason Sullivan’s request for a suspended sentence on Monday. He pleaded guilty last month to a charge of escaping from custody. Authorities say Sullivan and another man escaped the Fort Dodge jail in August.
