Isaiah Jamon Andrews
Authorities are searching for a homicide suspect who was mistakenly released from the Martinez Jail last week.
Isaiah Jamon Andrews, 20, was released Wednesday despite being held on an out-of-state arrest warrant for homicide, the Contra Costa County Sheriff’s Office said Monday.
Authorities are investigating the circumstances surrounding Andrews’ release, the Sheriff’s Office said in a news release.
“After Sheriff’s Office staff realized Andrews had been released, we launched a search of the immediate area and confirmed that Andrews was no longer in the area,” the Sheriff’s Office said.
The search for Andrews is being carried out by the U.S. Marshals Service, and local law enforcement agencies have been notified.
Andrews was also being held at the jail on local charges and a juvenile warrant out of Sacramento, the Sheriff’s Office said.
Anyone with any information on Andrews’ whereabouts is asked to call 911. The Contra Costa Sheriff’s Office can be reached at (925) 646-2441. For any tips, email: tips@so.cccounty.us or call (866) 846-3592 to leave an anonymous voice message.

Mick - are you quoting Michelle Obama? Duplicity is her middle name. Digging in our respective heels is not solving anything.
