Hilarious photos show prisoners disguising themselves with fake breasts and wigs to escape from jail

This get-out-of-jail card was not enough for two inmates trying to fool officers at a prison in Brazil.

Two male gang members disguised themselves as women as part of an attempt to walk out of the Professor José Sobreira de Amorim Prison Unit in Itaitinga on Sunday.

Francisco da Silva and Carlos Oliveira took advantage of the visitation hours and traded in their prison garb for women’s clothing while adding the subtle touch of fake breasts and wigs to complete the look.

One of the men appeared in filtered images, posted on social media, sporting fake grey hair with a white t-shirt and a long pink skirt, standing alongside prisoners and visitors.

Da Silva and Oliveira were just steps away from pulling off their stunt when they were spotted by the prison police.

They were separated from the visitors and returned to their respective jail cells, the Ceará Secretariat of Penitentiary Administration and Reintegration said in a statement.

Da Silva and Oliveira's rap sheets include arrests for murder, drug trafficking, robbery and criminal organization affiliation.

The Ceará Civil Police is looking into whether anyone assisted them. 

Under Brazilian law, assisting or allowing inmates is considered a crime. 

A person who is convicted of participating in the escape of a prison can be sentenced six to two years in prison.

The botched escape came just nine days after 22 inmates tried to flee from the Professor José Sobreira de Amorim Prison Unit – just six miles down the road.

The group was being led to their cell when they took three police officers hostage.

One of the men grabbed one of the guards and placed him on a chokehold and threatened him a knife.

They attempted to rush out of the prison, but were met with resistance and forced to retreat to their cells. One of the prisoners was shot and suffered a non-life-threatening wound.
