Couple Suspected of Sex Crimes Flee to Canada

Based on a social media post from Monday, the couple in question may be in Edmonton, Alberta Canada with no plans on returning.

Adam Rupeka of Troy and Jennifer Ogburn of Hudson were both charged on Saturday by police for endangering the welfare of a child, third-degree sexual abuse and forcible touching, all misdemeanors, for allegedly abusing a 15-year old girl.

While they were sent to Rennselaer County Jail on $5,000 bail, Rupeka was bailed out and returned to bail out Ogburn. Now, after their social media post from Monday, authorities won't know if the couple has truly skipped out until they miss their upcoming appearance in Troy City Court this week, said Jon Desso, a spokesman for DA Joel Abelove.

Should it be this easy for someone accused of such a crime to be bailed out? What do you think?
