Escaped Palmwood Developer Captured

DESERT HOT SPRINGS, Calif. - April 6, 2013 - PRLog -- DESERT HOT SPRINGS, CA – Residents of the city can rest easy now that Federal Marshals have arrested the Palmwood fraudster, and his fraudster pal, who escaped from a minimum-security federal prison in Duluth. The prison camp lacking a fence operates on the honor system. It was rated by Forbes magazine a few years ago as one of the top places to do federal time.

Considering it a possibility that fugitive Michael Crosby would turn up at the scene of his crime, the international INTERPOL service took special care to forward Crosby’s mugshot to the Desert Hot Springs police department according to Kate Singer the Police Chief, saying, “If we see ‘em we’ll arrest ‘em.”

Convicted felons Michael Krzyzaniak, 64 (AKA Michael Crosby) and Gerald Greenfield, 67, were caught early Friday enjoying an extended stay at the Hampton Inn in Burnsville, just outside Duluth Minesota, where they checked in just hours after turning up missing last weekend from the federal prison camp.

The two are now held at the Ramsey County jail, facing the prospect of spending a couple extra years behind bars for their unexcused absence.

“Tip information led investigators to the hotel where Krzyaniak and Greenfield were located together,” the Marshals Service said in a statement. “The pair were arrested without incident.”
