Ten years ago Sunday, Chicago awoke to the stunning sight of bedsheets dangling from the 17th floor of the federal high-rise jail in the Loop and a made-for-Hollywood tale of two convicted bank robbers on the run.In the predawn hours of Dec. 18, 2012, Joseph "Jose" Banks and his cellmate Kenneth Conley pulled off a seemingly death-defying feat, shimmying out of their narrow cell window at the Metropolitan Correctional Center on a rope made of knotted bed sheets and dental floss, then rappelling down the building's sheer face to a parking deck on West Van Buren Street.
