Calif. mom to stand trial on escape charge

Tue, Aug 19, 2008    to del.icio.us




PLYMOUTH (AP) — A California woman captured more than 30 years after she escaped from a Michigan prison is "extremely uncomfortable" back behind bars, and wants to move the case through the courts as quickly as possible, her attorney said Monday.

Susan LeFevre, 53, skipped her right to a preliminary examination, a waiver that sends her case to Wayne County Circuit Court weeks earlier than anticipated.

In 1976, with the help of her grandfather, LeFevre climbed over a barbed-wire fence at a state prison after serving a year of a 10- to 20-year sentence for selling heroin.

In April, the mother of three was arrested outside her home in an affluent area of San Diego.

LeFevre is back in Michigan serving at least 5 1/2 years on the drug charge before a chance at parole. But she also faces a separate escape charge.

Defense attorney William Swor said he plans to vigorously fight it, although he declined to elaborate.
