Holding

Grievance GRANTED. The Arbitrator found that the act of giving the escaping inmate his weapon was reasonable, given the circumstances. The arbitrator found the Employer's contention that the escape could have been prevented to be speculative, therefore it failed to prove convincingly enough that just cause existed. In essence, the grievant became a hostage before he could act.
