Police were unsure how 39-year-old Jason Carter escaped from the Columbia hospital, where he was committed after being found not guilty by reason of insanity, Oconee County Sheriff's Office spokesman Jimmy Watt said. Carter was working at a supply business on the hospital's campus some 115 miles northwest of Charleston in the southern U.S. state, CNN affiliate WISTV reported, citing local law enforcement. Eight years ago, police officers &quot;found the bodies of Kevin and Debra Ann Perkins inside a locked room in the basement with Carter inside with the victims,&quot; Watt said.</p><br clear="all"/>
