[HPforGrownups] Why didn't Sirius escape?

I believe that in GoF it was assumed by Sirius that he didn't get it because of his son's capture, trial, and sentence to Azkaban as a Death Eater.  It was thought that his son went bad because Barty Crouch Sr. did not spend enough time at home, and he lost favor with the community.

Some people just don't like politics. We are told in PS that Dumbledore
turned down the job of Minister of Magic, Hagrid tells Harry so, and
since there wasn't another candidate, Fudge got the job. I am still
wondering why old Barty Crouch didn't become Minister for Magic,
though. I can't remember if we were given a valuable reason for this
in the books.
