IONE — California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) officials are looking for a state prison inmate who walked away from the minimum-support facility at Mule Creek State Prison on February 7, 2019.

Inmate Zechariah Lee was found missing at 9:24 p.m. after an inmate count. On-duty staff immediately began searching the surrounding areas. Notification was made to local law enforcement agencies and CDCR’s Office of Correctional Safety.

Lee, 34, is a white male, 5 feet, 9 inches tall, and weighs 210 pounds. He has tattoos on his head and neck areas. He was received by CDCR in June 2017 out of Sacramento County with a three-year sentence for first-degree robbery.
