A Department of Corrections inmate who was caught trying to escape the Mangilao prison admitted guilt in the superior court today. 

Defendant Chercy Yosi pleaded guilty to attempted felony escape before Presiding Judge Alberto Lamorena. 

She was spared from having to serve more jail time and the judge released her from custody today. 

Last May, Yosi and two others were spotted by DepVor officers on the roof of the Post 8 Women's Facility. 

Yosi, who was previously serving time for a separate burglary case, was given three years' supervised released.
