News summary

Steven Craig Johnson, a convicted sex offender who escaped from Oregon's Mill Creek Correctional Facility in 1994, was arrested in Macon, Georgia, nearly 30 years later. Johnson, now 70, had been living under the alias William Cox, a name he assumed from a deceased Texas child. After his escape, Johnson obtained a birth certificate and Social Security number for the alias and lived undetected since 2011. He was captured by the U.S. Marshals Service following new leads developed using advanced investigative technology. Johnson, who was on Oregon's most wanted list, is now awaiting extradition back to Oregon. The Mill Creek facility was a minimum-security prison that closed in 2021.
