An Idaho white supremacist prison gang member who escaped during a gunfight ambush at a hospital was due in court on Monday afternoon.

Skylar Meade was scheduled to face a judge for a preliminary hearing hours after two co-defendants agreed to have their hearings delayed.

Meade and Nicholas Umphenour were taken into custody in Twin Falls, Idaho last month after being on the run for about 36 hours.

Umphenour was wanted on two charges of aggravated battery against law enforcement and one charge of aiding and abetting, in connection with Meade's prison break, which resulted in the shootings of three officers.

Authorities allege Umphenour helped facilitate Meade's "brazen" and "coordinated" escape from a Boise hospital in the middle of the night, where the inmate was taken for treatment for an alleged self-inflicted injury.

Authorities were also investigating two homicides in the nearby counties of Nez Perce and Clearwater for a possible connection to the two men. No charges have been filed yet in those killings.

Meade was serving a 20-year prison sentence for aggravated battery on a law enforcement officer with a firearm enhancement and was previously convicted of drug charges, grand theft, and introduction of contraband into a correctional facility when he escaped, police said.

He had been locked up since October 2016 and his sentence was set to end in October 2036.

The Idaho Department of Correction claimed Meade and Umphenour are members of the Aryan Knights white supremacist prison gang.

Tia Garcia, 27, of Twin Falls is also charged in connection with the escape. She is accused of aiding and abetting escape in connection with the case.

The Boise Police Department says Garcia had knowledge and was involved in the planning and execution of the escape. She is accused of falsely reporting her car stolen just after the attack. She was allegedly driving the truck Meade was in when police arrested him.

Umphenour and Garcia appeared by video link from jail on Monday, and both agreed to have their preliminary hearings delayed until April 29.

Meade did not agree to the delay.
