Joyce Mitchell, the former New York prison worker who helped two inmates escape in June, has been sentenced to 28 months to 7 years in prison.

The judge told Mitchell that he didn't find her explanation credible when he handed down the sentence on Monday.

Mitchell admitted in July, that she brought tools hidden in meat to the Clinton Correctional Facility to help inmates Richard Matt and David Sweat escape.

"I would take it all back if I could, but I can't," she told NBC in an interview.

Mitchell, 51, said she fell victim to a "fantasy."

Mitchell pleaded guilty and told investigators earlier that Matt planned to kill her husband. When the murderers escaped on June 6, she got too nervous to follow through with the plan, she said.
