Inmate Randall Heffner back in custody
SIOUX FALLS, S.D.- A state prison inmate who was placed on escape status earlier this month is back in custody.
Inmate Randall Heffner turned himself in to the Minnehaha County Jail June 15. Heffner was placed on escape status when he left his work release jobsite in Yankton June 3 without authorization and failed to return to the Yankton Community Work Center.
Failure to return to custody following an assignment constitutes second-degree escape, a Class 5 felony punishable by up to five years in prison.
