U.S. Marshals Let Fugitives Come to Them, in Church - New York Times

U.S. Marshals Let Fugitives Come to Them, in Church, New York Times, Aug. 5, 2007.

The U.S. Marshals Service has run this program -- "Fugitive Safe Surrender" -- in five cities so far, cooperating with local law enforcement and courts. Many people who are fugitives have fairly minor offenses, compounded by missed court dates, and are relieved to work out deals.
