You are young, and scared, you post bail, and flee the state. Many years go by, and you carve out a decent life for yourself in Pennsylvania, house , wife, kids etc. You have a good job, but not a great job. You want to start a business, but cannot get it off the ground because you are still a fugitive, and cannot get bonded.
Texas will not extradite you, but routine traffic stops here in Pa. , will sometimes turn into a 2-3 day affair , and you grow tired of constantly looking over your shoulder, and worrying .
You wish you would have done the right thing, and you really want to turn yourself in, but you now have a family that depends on you .
This is the story of Dale the painter. This guy, and his 19 year old nephew have been doing some side work for us at our rental houses. I just worked side by side with Dale for the last 3 days, and he is super hard worker, and a pretty decent guy all said and done. Drug, and alcohol free since 1997. On time every day, and two of the hardest working, nice guys I have met in a while.
He says that he is seriously considering turning him self in, and has been working 7 days a week, and taking on side work to help pay for legal fees and to leave some money for his family while he is away. He said that he is sick of worrying, and looking over his shoulder .
He wants to do it, but his wife and kids beg him not to. What is the right thing to do here?
Man, I'm glad I made the choices I did in my youth.
