Fun fact: escaping from prison is (in itself) not a crime in Germany and other countries, like Austria, Belgium, Switzerland.

Fun fact: Over 6% of inmates from North Macedonia will escape prison at least once.
Another fun fact: Over 26% of North Macedonia’s population is Albanian.
Coincidence?! Yes, absolutely.

Honestly, do you know how they counted escapes for this? Like, if someone „escapes“ while being basically on parole already in a Nordic social reintegration program, or if a country tries to make their statistics look better by defining very strict rules regarding what counts as an escape or by keeping everyone in high security prisons, that would cause quite a bias here.
Not saying that’s what happens, but those two potential scenario would certainly explain some of the outliers.

In turkey prisoners don’t need to escape they can’t stay in prison if they really did something.

Prison walls in Switzerland are literally made out of Swiss cheese

A lot of prisons in Finland are such that you can simply walk out, or are in fact allowed leave for some hours per day. This would be for nonviolent offenders or people about to be freed in the near future.
I’d presume the escape rate is low for the prisons where it’s the traditional high walls plus barbed wire affair.

Lol so 6.9% of prisoners escape from Macedonian prisons!? Whats up with that??

Per what time unit?

The numbers in the north are statistically misleading, there are almost no escapes in Sweden and Finland except for Robbe Robbersson who keeps escaping but always gets caught on the ferry between the countries.

Switzerland’s high number is mostly due to how escapes are defined.
Not returning from open prisons, work release, or temporary leave already counts as an escape.

Whenever you see stats with drastically different numbers between relatively similar countries (France Vs Netherlands say) it’s almost always due to different definitions or ways of counting. Like there’s just no way they have 300x the rate of prison escapes.

You dont have to escape in Turkey, government lets you out because they need more space for students and opposition members.

I love the story of the Greek bank robber who escaped twice by helicopter.
I don’t know how you can look at this map and think it makes any sense
CLEARLY to anyone with a shred of critical thinking, this is the usual „You cannot compare crimes against jurisdictions“ thing, right?
Right?

No data for Russia because they released them to join the army ?

I personally know three people that had escaped from Macedonian prison. One of them worked for three years as a club bouncer in Bulgaria after. Then the government in Macedonia changed and the new one was promising different policy in regard of his crimes. So he decided to go back with the hope of amnesty but they have returned him to prison anyway. 😂

Helllll yeaaaaaa but could you give me the sources that you used for the escapes becouse i do not belive that fr*nc has only one and the nether/switzer land have +250

In Sweden it is not illegal to escape from prison. They never/rarely get anywhere though and are found in the woods later.

Czech Republic’s 0 is bullsh1t, most likely beucase there is no public data on escapes from 2000 and further, but there are prison escapes, one example that comes to mind is Jiri Kajinek, guy sent to prison for murders when he worked as hitman. He escaped, was found in apartment of cellmates wife or something, went to prison again then got presidential pardon in 2017, currently he is free

Finland is fairly small populated so the 4 escapes by a single inmate Matti Haapoja alone gives Finland some percentage 🙂
