OCTOBER 24, 2013 PRESS RELEASE

 

The United States Attorney’s Office for the Middle District of Pennsylvania announced that a federal grand jury in Harrisburg returned an indictment today charging William Trickett Smith, Sr., age 76, with attempting to arrange a prison escape, lying to federal agents about it, and trying to persuade someone else to lie to federal agents.

According to United States Attorney Peter J. Smith, the charges stem from events surrounding the arrest and extradition of the defendant’s son, William Trickett Smith, II. In 2007, Smith, II was arrested in Pennsylvania, and charged in Peru for the murder of his wife. Peruvian authorities sought his extradition.
