Mary Evans, the young lawyer who fell in love with a convict killer in Tennessee and helped him escape, will be paroled from prison after serving less than one year of a three-year sentence. Evans, 28, will walk out of the Chattanooga Community Service Center 10 months and 7 days after a judge ordered her to prison because she refused to apologize for her crime. Evans surrendered her law license last March when she pleaded guilty to helping William Timothy Kirk, 38, escape from the Brushy Mountain State Prison.
