We did a cursory search of the room where Peter was residing at the time.

And the room was basically cleaned up, except for a few items that were very distinct clues on where Peter might have gone.

In the father's house, there are references to Canada.

There are breadcrumbs that would lead any investigator to thinking, this man's going to Canada.

Some of those items included books on how to change one's identity, how to live life on the run in Canada.

So it appeared that Peter was heavily researching how to exit the country through the Washington border into Canada.

I decided at that point that we needed to interview Peter's sons.

The oldest son initially told us his father was telling them, yes, I'm going to run.

His plan was to drive to the Canadian border of the state of Washington.

He was going to walk across, find himself a menial job, and then from there he was going to go to a country where he could then contact his sons and have a reunion.

He knew people in Canada.

He lived in Canada as a child.

When the parents left England, they first went to Canada, then made their way to California.

So during the first three years after Peter ran, the Marshals followed up on leads and tips in Canada, hitting dead ends at every turn.

If I could put a number on all the resources that we used, there was approximately 20 to 30 personnel at any given time doing something on this case.

As time goes by, it's difficult to continue a timeline and establish locations of where and when a fugitive is gone.

Peter was definitely my Pink Panther, for lack of a better term.

We knew he was there, we just couldn't get him.

When a case gets chilly or starts to go cold, bringing in a fresh set of eyes is a great way to look at things a little bit differently.

And that's exactly what happened.
