WITHOUT saying a word, a teenager accused in a two-year string of sometimes shoeless burglaries and other crimes that helped him gain notoriety as the "Barefoot Bandit" agreed on Friday to return to his home state to face federal charges.
Hector Dopico, representing 19-year-old Colton Harris-Moore, told a federal judge that Harris-Moore waived his right to a hearing on whether he should be transferred to Seattle. Judge Robert Dube said Harris-Moore would be handed over to the US Marshals Service.
Harris-Moore said nothing during the brief hearing.
The teenager, from rural Camano Island, Washington state, is suspected in about 70 crimes in nine states and British Columbia, some allegedly committed while shoeless. He was first arrested at age 12 and had been on the run since escaping from a halfway house south of Seattle in 2008.
Authorities say Harris-Moore stole an airplane from an Indiana airport and flew it to the Bahamas. They say he then commandeered a boat in a potential attempt to reach the more remote Turks and Caicos Islands and eventually hide in Cuba. But it all ended when police shot out the engine of Harris-Moore's boat and took him into custody.
