Bibb County Sheriff David Davis said jail staff noticed a break in the perimeter fence around the jail at about 6 a.m. Monday. They went back and watched video footage and discovered that the four men were able to escape through a window in a second-floor dayroom at the jail and then escape through the break in the fence around 3:30 a.m. The sheriff identified the four men as Joey Fournier, Marc Kerry Anderson, Johnifer Dernard Barnwell and Chavis Demaryo Stokes.
