Alleged Devil In A Blue Dress

Meet Milton Taylor.

The 35-year-old Missouri man escaped last Saturday (8/3) from the Dunklin County jail, where he was awaiting trial on murder and drug trafficking charges. After three days on the lam, Taylor was captured by sheriff's deputies who discovered him hiding in the closet of a friend's home.

The 6-foot, 150-pound Taylor was disguised as a woman, wearing a simple denim house dress and hair extensions.

Since police, for posterity's sake, wanted to record Taylor's unique outfit, they took this wide-angled mug shot of the escapee (beneath that image you'll find a more traditional booking photo taken after Taylor's 2001 murder arrest).

We've also included the police incident report detailing Taylor's recent capture. (3 pages)
