If betting were legal I'd say absolutely, but on the face of it why should someone on the lam turn themselves in?
After all, there are literally HUNDREDS of folks walking the street with some legal issue or another hanging over the head, so they bury themselves even deeper in the system by blowing off a driver's license renewal, auto insurance, the works to stay free.
Problem is: that's not free.
It's why more than 90 people stood in line outside Akron's The House of the Lord Church to get right, not with Jesus but with John Law (the Lord can wait for another day but my guess is some folks may have knocked down both birds with one visit) and the U.S. Marshal.

Best take: the folks who just said it was getting way too tiring to live life on the lam, even to the point of just getting legal behind the wheel. This is one of those great stories people complain we don't do enough of: most "fugitives" will get back to normal lives, their families can sleep easier knowing they won't get a call from the slammer or, even worse, the preacher and Medical Examiner, and cops all across northeast Ohio can scratch another name off the list and sleep safely themselves that they aren't put in harm's way -- again.
