An inmate who escaped from state custody at Bon Secours St. Mary's Hospital in August 2023 and was on the run for two months will stand trial in Henrico in December.

Naseem Isaiah Roulack escaped from the custody of Virginia Department of Corrections officials and disappeared for two months before he was captured in Northern Virginia. He had been in Henrico for a medical procedure while serving a sentence at Greensville Correctional Center.

A two-day jury trial is currently scheduled to start on Monday, Dec. 2 in Henrico County Circuit Court. Roulack also faces a number of charges in Montgomery County, Maryland, stemming from incidents that allegedly occurred after he escaped.

“The Virginia Department of Corrections is pleased to see this case proceeding to trial,” said VADOC Director Chad Dotson. “Our agency will continue to pursue prosecution to the fullest extent of the law for any inmate who escapes state custody.”
