The inmate erroneously released, Maurice Xavier Haynes, is still at large and a warrant for his arrest has been issued
VANCOUVER – Clark County Jail Services on Monday (Oct. 28), erroneously released an inmate who was supposed to be transported back to the state of Oregon to serve his remaining time in that state. The inmate was released after time served on his Clark County case for Theft II which was adjudicated before Superior Court Judge David Gregerson.
The inmate, Maurice Xavier Haynes is still at large, and a warrant for his arrest has been issued. Local law enforcement agencies including Oregon State Department of Corrections have been notified.
Haynes is a 27-year-old black male, 6-foot-1 and about 170 pounds with a tattoo on his right forearm that reads, “Markisha.” Anyone with knowledge of his whereabouts is asked to notify local law enforcement.
Haynes was serving a 15-month sentence in Oregon for Criminal Mischief 1 with a maximum expiration date of Sept. 17, 2025.
Jail Services is conducting an internal affairs investigation to determine how this release occurred.
