REAL STORIES: Go home and wait

The Twin Cities Daily News Blog

Fitchburg and Leominster Mass Daily News.- February 10, 1993. FBI and Florida authorities arrested Paul E. Flasher, 45, who had been sentenced to five years in prison in 1980 for grand theft but who had never been jailed.

Flasher said he had gone home from the sentencing hearing in Tampa and "sat tight," just as his lawyer had instructed, waiting for notification to report to prison. Authorities forgot him for 12 years.
