Man Convicted After 30-Year Fugitive Hunt | Orlando News
Description
A fugitive for over three decades, Jose Santos, 58, just received a 12-year prison sentence for a 1992 sexual assault in Florida — the crime he confessed to but escaped justice by vanishing after getting bail. Authorities finally caught him in Texas last December when he crossed from Mexico, leading to a DNA match that sealed his conviction. His whereabouts during those 30+ years remain unknown, but this case proves that persistence and technology can deliver long-overdue justice — even after decades.
