BAREFOOT BANDIT FACES MOORE CHARGES

BARE-FOOTED CHEEK
BAREFOOT bandit Colton Harris Moore faces yet more charges against him connected with the theft of another plane and the robbery of an airport hangar. As his lawyer try to thrash out a plea deal for the 16-year-old who led authorities on a huge cross country chase he stands accused of more crimes in addition to his already lengthy list of more than 70 crimes across nine states.
The self-taught pilot, is accused of leading authorities on several chases in stolen boats, cars and small planes after allegedly fleeing from a halfway house south of Seattle in 2008.

But his life on the lam came to an end almost a year ago after he allegedly stole a plane in Indiana, crash landed it in the Bahamas and was ultimately captured by cops on the island following a high-speed boat chase.
The nimble 19-year-old is expected to reach plea deals by the end of this month that would resolve federal and state charges in several jurisdictions.
But now these new charging documents describe how authorities found bare footprints, fingerprints and DNA at many San Juan island locations in Washington State.
They add the young man taunted one sheriff's deputy who chased him by calling out, "You can't catch me."
