4 go over the wall
Roadblocks have been set up in an effort to capture several convicts who went over the wall. (RHD) — На дорогах были выставлены пикеты, чтобы задержать бежавших из тюрьмы заключенных.
2) уйти из монастыря; снять с себя сан (тж. jump или leap over the wall)No one knows exactly how many religious have jumped over the wall - partly because it is so easy today for a priest, nun or brother simply to take a leave of absence and never return. (‘Time’, DNE) — Никто точно не знает, сколько священников, монахинь и монахов отказались от сана. Частично это объясняется тем, что священнослужителю теперь так легко взять отпуск, уехать и не вернуться.
