Why not just go to the police station and prove to them that your identity had been stolen or contact a lawyer to do so for you. I have never heard of such an absurd reaction to a chain of events, I can think of at least fifteen ways you could have handled this and actually kept your life. Your story sounds fishy to me buddy, you don't go on the run unless you have something to be running from. They obviously took mugshots of the guy when he was arrested so they police would have cleared you had you just gone down there to talk to them like a normal human being. I'm sorry if you plight sucks but it sounds like it's as much your fault as it is they guy that stole your identity. Smarten up! You went on the run for ten years because some idiot stole your ID?

The person who stole my Identity is now a convicted murderer. Not to mention his 4 other felonies all attributed to me. The funny thing was, he was a fugitive for the murder charge the first time he used my name, looked nothing like me, had totally way different stats, was in my home town where I had been arrested and booked (dismissed case) but they had my info on file. He was 6 years younger than me. He had no ID, so they filled in his arrest sheet with my details from my arrest. He was Identified while in jail. Paperwork was mis-placed and he made bail under my name. Never went to court. I was convicted in his absence for 3 felonies and warrants were issued for my arrest. I was on the run and hid from authorities for over 10 years. I subsequently ended up broke and homeless because i couldn't get a job in my previous line of work. I started working in privately owned bars and nightclubs to get off the streets. And now i deliver pizzas. There is a lot more. Criminal Identity Theft sucks, but stupid cops suck more.
