Escaped New York prisoners may have had help from staff: governor Posted: 08 Jun 2015 06:09 AM PDT (Reuters) - New York state officials are investigating whether a civilian staff member or contractor helped a pair of convicted murders to escape from a maximum-security prison near the Canadian border, Governor Andrew Cuomo said on Monday. Several hundred law enforcement officials were in their third day of searching for Richard Matt, 48, and David Sweat, 34, who went missing from the Clinton Correctional Facility in Dannemora, about 20 miles (30 km) south of the Canadian border.    "I would be shocked if a guard was involved, and that's putting it mildly," Cuomo told CNN.
