Larkins was recently sentenced to probation for two counts of felony third-degree drug sales. As part of his probation conditions, Larkins was being held in custody at the Mower County Jail until a treatment bed became available.
According to the court complaint, Larkins was granted furlough on Dec. 19 to be temporarily released from jail from noon on Dec. 24 to 7 a.m. on Dec. 26, at which time he was to report back to jail. He was informed that failure to do so would result in a charge of escape from custody.
Larkins did not report back to jail at the stated time; he was later arrested and brought to the Mower County Jail in the early hours of Dec. 31.
A review of Larkins’ criminal history shows prior convictions for drug sales, drug possession and theft.
A pre-trial has been scheduled for Feb. 21.
