After being snitched on by an anonymous caller, Marie Walsh, formally known as Susan LeFevre, was arrested by federal marshals from her home in Carmel Valley, a posh neighborhood in San Diego, after 32 very long years on Lam. According to officials, LeFevre, a former drug dealer, walked out in 1976 after serving only one year of the 10 to 20 year drug charge appointed to her.
LeFevre is now married with 3 children and claims that her family had no previous knowledge of her past life. Her husband states that, “police officials should find shame in interrupting not only the life of a gentle and protecting woman but the relationship of her family for something that happened when she was merely 19 years old”.
Arrested on April 24, 2008, LeFevre currently awaits extradition back to Michigan while being held in custody.
So, I wonder, is this a case of “new name, new family, old habits” or is the government simply bored and needed something to do? And for that matter, I can’t seem to understand how they managed to find this woman after 32 long years under an entirely different identity, but can’t find Osama! Am I the only person who finds something wrong with this?
And…should she have to serve the remainder of her previous sentence?
What do you think?
