Guard waited four hours to notify local police of prisoner's escape. Guard not charged with any crime, not even stupidity for falling asleep with two unshackled prisoners in his room after drinking heavily during winning streak. Reported to have been out looking for the escaped prisoner he was more likely looking for his money.
