Olson who was formerly known as Kathleen Soliah, spent decades on the run and started a new life and family quietly in Minnesota. Olson was captured without incident, entered into a plea agreement and served time as a model inmate.
Olson’s release hit a sour note with LA police officers and the family of a woman murdered during an SLA bank stick-up. Olson was connected to an unexploded bomb placed on a police cruiser.
Corrections officers had prevented Olson from boarding a plane at LAX last evening but she was allowed to return to Palmdale for the night. Olson was re-arrested this morning by corrections officers.
Corrections officials blamed a clerical error that inadvertently reduced Olson’s sentence by a full year. She now won't be eligible for release until March 17, 2009, officials said. I guess the folks on our government's payroll can't do simple math.
I can’t seem figure out how another year will protect us from this 60-Plus year-old woman or do anything more than waste tax money.

I hope there is a way for her to be compensated for this mess perhaps with the remaining year being forgiven by Gov. Termanator.

What was she charged with? Certainly not escaping from prison. This may be an unlawful arrest under color of authority. Interesting! They couldn't find a better use for $50,000?
