Hitchhiking Through Florida
Although Crews had been indicted by a Polk County grand jury for murder, he still managed to get out of Florida and remain in the shadows for quite some time. He ended up hitchhiking his way out of Florida and on to the AT trail. Given he wasn’t using traditional hiking gear, nor did his gait seem like that of a seasoned hiker, he stood out to many, which was how he was identified later on.
