A NOTORIOUS spammer escaped from a US prison camp in Colorado this week and is still on the lam.
Edward "Eddie" Davidson was convicted in April, sentenced to 21 months of free room and board in the federal slammer and ordered to pay $714,139 in restitution.
He walked away from the minimum-security facility in Florence, Colorado on Sunday. The US Attorney's office announced Davidson's escape on Tuesday, saying he was last seen in Lakewood, a suburb of Denver, which is about 90 miles north of Florence.
The US Marshalls, FBI and IRS are all looking for him. If and when they find him, he'll likely be charged with escape, which might tack another year or more onto his prison sentence.
