This undated photo provided by the FBI shows Joseph "Jose" Banks, one of two inmates who escaped from the Metropolitan Correctional Center in downtown Chicago, Dec. 18, 2012. Banks and Ken Conley appear to have busted away concrete to enlarge a window opening then climbed down about 16 stories on the makeshift ropes to make their escape. Banks, known as the Second-Hand Bandit, was convicted earlier in the month of two bank robberies and two attempted robberies where he made off with a nearly $600,000, $500,000 of which is still unaccounted for. Conley was convicted of robbing nearly $4,000 from a bank in 2011.
