We've got a second lead.

We've got a local here who says

our convicts are held up in some cabin.

Do we know where?

He's on his way now to give us

a pinpoint but it's in this area.

The problem is this area

is 10,000 square miles of forest.

Wake up. Wake up!

Wake up!

Come on, get up.

What's she doing?

You say

''l'm sorry''

is not going cut it.

But these will.

No, no, no...

No!

You crushed my boy's liver.

No!

Oh, f***!

F*** this f***ing sh*t!

l can't take this any more.

Get me out of there!

Now what?

So we iust pick up tomorrow

and we could just disappear.

l iust want Ben back.

- l want him back so bad.

- Yeah, l know.

So do l.

He's held up in a cabin,

up the road.

- Can't miss it.

This is it.

Spread out, stay alert.

Come on, boy.

Spread out!

Come on, boy!

Find him, boy!

Come on. Let's get him back

on the table before he wakes up.

Craig!

- Where is he?

- Oh, God.

He walked out the front door.

- You OK?

- He just stared at me.

- We can't let him get away.

- Be careful.

This way.

Come on, boy.

There he is!

Freeze!

Cuff him!

'As you can see behind me,

authorities have now located

'the abandoned Vermont

Correctional vehicle

'that was carrying John Kozlowski,

the convicted child killer

'who is serving 25 years in iail'

'Twenty-five years to life?

- 'He can not get off that easy'

- 'We kidnap him'

'Buckle your f***ing seatbelt,

a**hole'

'l...

l don't remember anything'

'lt's the same guy'

'You want to torture a man who has

no idea why we're doing it to him?'

- 'Say his name'

- 'He tortured Benjamin to death'

'Say his f***ing name!'

'Beniamin!'

'Love you, Mummy'

'Also, Patrick Galligan,

'a man who was convicted

of tax evasion and fraud

'who was sentenced

to 18 months in prison'

- 'He's alive'

- 'Thank God'

'Come on!'

'lt is still unclear

if Kozlowski has left the area

'with the assistance of others

or if he has simply disappeared

'into the 10,000 acres

of surrounding wilderness.

'Authorities have begun

an extensive man-hunt

'and say it is unlikely for anyone

to survive these elements

'without food or shelter

for more than three days'

'Nothing l can say will ever

ease the pain that l've caused you.

'And l fully deserve

what you were about to do to me.

'l am an abomination.

'But l'm also a coward.

'On top of everything...

'...l know l must die.

'But l can't take any more

of the torture.

'l'm sorry'
