The nine detainees were escaped from the Constant Spring Police lock-up in St. Andrew on Tuesday are back in custody.
In an update Thursday morning, the Jamaica Constabulary Force said the last escapee, 19-year-old Alonzo Espute, who was charged with murder, surrendered to the police.
The JCF had launched an island-wide manhunt in search of eight of the men who had managed to leave the station compound after reportedly cutting open their cell.
The men were discovered missing about 1 a.m. Tuesday during routine checks.
The search took investigators to three police divisions, St. Catherine North, St. Andrew South and Trelawny. Meanwhile, the St. Catherine North Police has charged a woman with harbouring a fugitive following the recapture of Talik Chamber's on Wednesday.
Chambers was found in the company of 21-year-old Shamara Holmes during an operation in Waterloo Gardens in Spanish Town.
