Police Arrest Man After Escaping for 33 Years

Oklahoma police recently arrested Anthony Rackley, a 62 year old man that escaped from a Maryland jail over 30 years ago. Rackley was convicted of robbery and, after escaping, earned his living by raising funds for the Lions Club community service organization. Just like everyone else (sarcasm) he personally contacted the local Oklahoma City police and turned himself in. Rackley stated that his co-worker knew he was a fugitive and was demanding large amounts of money from him that he would raise for the Lions Club, and was willing to turn him in if he didn't pay. Rackley, who was going by the name Jack Watson, said he was "willing to go back to jail to stop it". As Rackley is currently being sent back to prison, police are further investigating his "partner".
