Actually was his escape dramatic?
Nobody has bothered to go down and find out how exactly Duclos got away from his guard but I think it's a question that bears asking.
Presumably Duclos tricked the guard somehow but who knows, maybe he's very sick with only a few days to live and the guard looked the other way to allow him to go out on one last great big Verdun drug binge.
Anyway, thankfully Duclos didn't have to kill anybody to get free, unlike Gilles Hebert who shot his guardian to death when he escaped on a visit to St. Mary's in 1975.
The other great out-of-prison visit escape story that pops to mind is that of Wayne Boden who took off and hit the Kon Tiki with an American Express credit card sent to him in jai.
So where is Duclos?
Now, let's consider that the last time he fled justice he got all the to Colombia for three months before being captured.
But that was when he had a passport.

We know that he used to be a hard-core drug addict and claimed to have the ability to speak something like five languages, but the same could be said for just about half the readers of this site as well.
We can logically deduce that Duclos is not driving around, because even if he stole a car, it would eventually be reported and he'd likely just get pulled over.
So he's most likely lying low in an urban area.
My best bet would be that he's sleeping among other vagrants on the banks of the St. Lawrence in Verdun. Homeless people and or squeegie punks are also said to sleep in the fields around the Turcot yards, or some place such as the chronically empty fields near Pullman and Ste. Anne de Bellevue Blvd.
Now if in fact you are Jean-Pierre Duclos and you are reading this, I invite you to drop me a line on my gmail and we'll negotiate the terms of your surrender, I'll make sure they give you the cucumber sandwiches with the crust cut off.
The irony is that Duclos's sentence was very near its end anyway, so he might have some extra time to do when he is finally captured.
Duclos was in a provincial prison, which often houses murderers near the end of their sentences.
I once went up to a prison in Laval to interview prisoners and was put in with about six inmates, many of whom had committed murders, but they didn't want to talk about their misdeeds, only what they were going through now.
Several of them had the too-much-eye-contact thing going on, which is the sign of a sociopath, as we know and Duclos might be in that same boat judging by his photo.
