The prisoners both escape artists were the first to attempt a breakout from the Maryland Correctional Adjustment Center since the super-maximum-security institution on East Madison Street opened in November 1988, according to authorities. Their plan went awry last Sunday during a routine cell inspection when a guard noticed that prisoner Rico Marzano, 22. had managed to saw the heads off several screws on a metal window grate, prison spokesman Leonard A.

Slpes Jr. said yesterday. Correctional officers confiscated two halves of a hacksaw blade from the adjoining cells of Marzano, a convicted killer, and John A. Wells, a robber and thief, Mr. Sipes said.

Both are serving life terms. The short rope, fashioned from a bedsheet, was found In the cell of Marzano, who was convicted of the drug-related 1987 slaying of two pregnant sisters and their husbands in Middle River. He is serving a life sentence without parole plus 130 years for robbery and handgun convictions. The prisoners were not close to getting through their cell windows, which faced an interior courtyard, Mr. Sipes said.

Marzano staged a brief escape from the Somerset County courthouse after his trial in Princess Anne last summer, managing to climb out of the sheriffs car. He was Intercepted minutes later by a motorist who forced him into waist-deep marsh mud, where he was caught by police. Police speculated that Marzano somehow obtained a key to his leg irons and handcuffs during court proceedings and then waited until Rogers Avenue: Northern Parkway to Park Hayward Avenue: Winner to Park Heights convicts foiled at 'Super Max' prison RELIGIOUS NOTICES he was in the car to make his escape. Wells escaped in 1983 from the Maryland Correctional Institution in Hagerstown, where he was serving time for assault with a deadly weapon and yet another escape. Wells scaled two fences, one of them lined with razor ribbon making him the first Inmate In more than two years to flee that Institution.

During his four months of freedom, he committed six armed rob Christian Science Christian beries and eight burglaries, and shot and critically wounded a Janitor at the Hazelwood Inn. Wells Is now serving a life sentence for those robberies, as well as 15 years for handgun violations. The Hagerstown attempt netted him 20 years on top of the other two sentences. The 299-cell Super Max was built to hold the prison system's most disruptive and violent Inmates.
