Though it has never been determined how it exactly began, Kohut who worked as a personal trainer and was then in his early thirties entered into a letter writing correspondence with Pike around the beginning of 2011. By July of that year Kohut was making the close to 1800 mile (by car) round trip from Flemington NJ to Nashville TN to visit Pike in person on visiting days once or twice a month. Eventually Kohut communicated a plan for her escape to Pike and enlisted the help of corrections office Heflin who agreed to participate in return for cash and gifts. Because of “security concerns” the Tennessee Department of Corrections didn’t and won’t provide much in the way of details about the plan, however the eventually unsealed indictment laid out a scenario where a prison key would be traced and then a duplicate created. Early in 2012 (again the TDOC is vague on details) prison personnel received information about the escape plot. This led to the attempted prison break being thwarted by a joint investigation involving the Tennessee Department of Corrections, the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation and the New Jersey State Police.According to The TBI the plan was not very far along when uncovered and “the jailbreak was not imminent”.
