Cook didn't immediately respond to emails Tuesday seeking details on when or how Stephenson was caught and whether there was a struggle.
Cook declined to comment on April 17 when asked how Stephenson escaped in Milwaukee. He didn't immediately respond to an email asking again how Stephenson escaped.
