A 60-year-old woman who fled a聽Michigan prison聽nearly 37 years ago has been captured in San Diego, where she was living under an assumed name, law enforcement officials said on Wednesday.

Judy Lynn Hayman聽was arrested on a fugitive warrant earlier this week after a detective working cold cases stuck inside during a recent winter storm found her fingerprints in an FBI database, said Lieutenant聽Russ Marlan聽of the聽Michigan聽Department of Corrections.

"The investigator inside his desk had about 40 cases of these old fugitives that had never been apprehended," Marlan said. "He started working all these old cases."

He said Hayman's prints were in the database from previous arrests in聽California.

Prison records show Hayman聽had served eight months of a 16-24 month sentence after pleading guilty in 1976 to attempted larceny when she was 23 years old. Under聽Michigan聽law, attempted larceny is the attempted theft of property worth over $100.

"She was stealing clothing from a couple of stores in聽Detroit听补苍诲 Lavonia," Marlan said. "It was larceny, probably a reduced charged of attempted larceny - essentially shoplifting."

Hayman was living under the name Jamie Lewis when San Diego police found her at her home near Balboa Park, said San Diego police spokesman Lieutenant Kevin Meyer. Her 32-year-old son was visiting at the time.

She was being held without bail at Las Colinas Detection Facility.

Hayman, who also went by the names聽Brenda Bushner听补苍诲 Judy聽Kayman, could face additional time for leaving the聽Michigan聽prison.

Marlan said that when Hayman聽escaped in 1977, the Huron Valley Correctional facility, the state's only women's prison, had little security.

"An escape could have been walking away in the middle of the night," he said.
