Police Capture Murderer After Running For 30 Years



corrections officials have finally caught up with a parolee convicted of murder who had eluded them for more than three decades.
Richard Bradford had been living under the false identity of James Edward Heard and owned several properties in the Pasadena area, including a drug rehabilitation facility, authorities said.
Bradford was sentenced to life for first-degree murder in 1971, was paroled in 1978, and skipped out on his parole supervision in 1980, the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation said in a statement Wednesday.
Agents arrested Bradford this week, more than 32 years after he had disappeared, the statement said.
A false birth certificate with Heard's name was created in Alameda County in 1977, and a Social Security card was issued to him in 1978, both while he was still in prison, officials said.
