KINCHELOE -- A prison inmate has pleaded guilty to carjacking for his part in the failed escape attempt from Kinross Correctional Facility earlier this year.
Andrew Ross, 25, was charged with carjacking, assault with intent to rob while armed and four other felonies after the failed prison escape on July 15.
Ross and two other inmates, Seth Privacky and Brian Davidson, are accused of carjacking a semi truck, assaulting the driver and then driving the rig through the fences of the prison. The three inmates left the semi when it got stuck and started running.
Ross and Brian Davidson were both caught. Seth Privacky was shot and killed in the incident.
Ross pleaded guilty to carjacking on August 31, 2010. He faces life in prison on the charge when he is sentenced. A sentencing date has not yet been set.
The Chippewa County Prosecutor said charges against Davidson will not be filed since he is already serving life in prison without a chance of parole. He was convicted of first degree murder out of Kent County in 2003.
Privacky, 30, was convicted of killing his parents, brother, brother's girlfriend and his grandfather on November 29, 1998 in Muskegon. Privacky was a teenager at the time of the crime.
