Escaped killer who was on the run in Pennsylvania for 2 weeks pleads guilty to escape charges
WEST CHESTER, Pa. (AP) — A convicted killer captured last year after two weeks on the run in southeastern Pennsylvania’s rolling farmlands pleaded guilty Friday to escape and burglary charges. Danilo Cavalcante was sentenced immediately afterward to serve 15 to 30 years in addition to his life sentence without parole for killing his ex-girlfriend. He chose not to speak in court. Cavalcante, 35, escaped from a Chester County lockup while waiting to be transferred to state prison to serve a life sentence for the killing. He escaped by clambering up between two walls in a jail exercise yard, then climbing over razor wire and jumping from a roof. Cavalcante had been convicted of killing Deborah Brandao to stop her from telling police about charges against him in connection with a 2017 slaying in Brazil.
