If a character escapes the Brig on their own turn, do they draw a Crisis card that turn?

Several posters agree the Crisis draw depends on whether the character is still in the Brig at the Crisis step.

Yes. The Brig blocks the Crisis draw only while the character is still in the Brig at the Crisis step. Once they have escaped, for example with a skill check in the action step, they draw a Crisis card. Being sent to the Brig during your own turn means no Crisis that turn.
