Authorities in Texas have launched a manhunt for Troy Dugas, a convicted domestic abuser, who was mistakenly released from Harris County Jail. The error occurred just before Dugas was scheduled to begin a 5-year prison sentence. Police are pleading with the public to assist in locating the inmate, emphasizing the urgency of the situation as he is considered a violent offender. This incident highlights ongoing concerns regarding jail release procedures, particularly as it follows a similar mistake where another inmate was erroneously freed six months prior.
