You're misunderstanding what I'm saying, Granger. The public may not have known about the escape for a short period of time, but the Ministry was already swiftly working on the situation.
[Private to Granger] There were tactics involved in when the public would be told. Alerting escapees' family members or acquaintances of the escapees before the Ministry were able monitor these people, for example, and locations they may have been expected to flee to, would have been foolish. I know you're intelligent enough to comprehend that, Granger.
