The Associated Press is reporting that accused courthouse shooter Brian Nichols is suspected of trying to break out of prison a second time. The AP says it has documents that Nichols may have enlisted his girlfriend, a paralegal and at least two sheriff's deputies in the scheme. Nichols allegedly plotted to cut his way through the cinderblock walls of the Fulton County Jail, jump into a waiting van and make his way to his girlfriend up north. Nichols first escaped from police custody in March 2005, and he faces the death penalty for allegedly killing four people during that escape.
