The family that flees together . . . gets hunted down by federal marshals together. That's how a family reunion for a trio of escapees, including a 14-year-old and two convict lovers, ended last Tuesday night in a Grafton, N.H., trailer after a four-week manhunt. Joanna Snyder, 41, an inmate at the Essex County Sheriff's Women in Transition Center in Salisbury, Mass., kicked off the family escape by skipping out on her work-release job April 28, said U.S. Marshals spokesman Paul Sugrue. About a month later, she helped spring her boyfriend, James Hussey, 34, who was being monitored with an electronic bracelet by Essex officials on a check larceny rap, said Essex Sheriff Department spokesman Paul Fleming. ``They then broke their daughter out of DSS (Department of Social Services) custody in Lynn and that's when we got contacted,'' Sugrue said. Federal marshals, New Hampshire State Police and Essex officials busted the family reunion at 11:30 p.m. The trio surrendered without incident, Fleming said. The family of federal and state wards were on the verge of cleaning their hands of their legal woes when they fled north. Snyder, who has 23 aliases, was scheduled to be released from the halfway house for women with drug and alcohol offenses Nov. 20, Fleming said. Her tangles with the law include a federal conviction for mail theft in Arizona and state charges for distribution of cocaine, heroin and other illegal substances, Sugrue said. She was taken to the Salisbury facility in February for a parole violation, Fleming said. Hussey was scheduled to turn in his electronic monitoring device June 21, Fleming said. His criminal record includes 48 arraignments on charges ranging from narcotics distribution to assault and battery, officials said. |
