An Oregon state prison escapee who had been on the run for nearly three decades was apprehended in Georgia on Tuesday. Steven Craig Johnson, 70, had escaped from the Mill Creek Correctional Facility in Salem, Oregon, in 1994 where he was serving time for sexual abuse charges. Johnson had been in custody since 1989.
Authorities arrested Johnson at an apartment complex in Macon, Georgia, where he had been living under the stolen identity of a deceased child since 2011. He had obtained the child's birth certificate and Social Security number, as well as a Georgia driver's license using this false identity.
