An alleged sex offender from California faked his suicide on the Golden Gate Bridge was on the run for nearly three years before he was captured more than 3,000 miles away, living in a trailer in southern Florida, authorities said.Police said he had slipped away from Chico, California, police in October 2016 after skipping his sentencing hearing on charges of sexually soliciting a minor under 14, engaging in sex acts with a minor and possession of 600 images of child pornography.
A little over a year later, in October 2016, authorities in California found a rental car leased to Manning abandoned near the Golden Gate Bridge with a handwritten suicide note inside. A body was not found, and police believed that Manning had staged his own death and fled with the help of an associate.
Manning's yearslong police evasion ended on May 3 when deputies with Florida's Monroe County Sheriff's Office found him inside an unlocked trailer as they investigated a burglary alarm at a nearby business. According to the department'sA search of the trailer turned up a military contractor ID, several checks and a passport all bearing the name"William Wallace Littlejohn." Authorities believed the passport was fraudulent and contacted U.S. Border Patrol.
Manning, who was refusing to give police his real name, was booked into a Florida jail as"John Doe" as authorities worked to figure out who he really was. That discovery wasn't made until he was fingerprinted and records showed that he was wanted in California.
