Prison Escapee, Now Suburban Mom, Caught After 32 Years

A 53-year-old mother of three, on the lam for 32 years after escaping from a Detroit prison, has been nabbed in a San Diego suburb. A fugitive since 1976, Susan Lefevre left the prison on a work pass and didn't return; she'll now have to finish out the remaining 9 years of her 10-year sentence for selling drugs, the San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

Lefevre, known to her neighbors as Marie Walsh, says she was arrested as a teen for selling $200 worth of drugs to an undercover cop; authorities counter that she was a major trafficker working for a $2,000-per-week heroin operation. "I really wanted to keep this secret," said Lefevre, a mainstay of the Michigan Department of Corrections most-wanted list. (More crime stories.)
