“When he was contacted by an ex-girlfriend who had seen his pictures in a newscast, Leverett determined that it was time to turn himself in. Unfortunately for Leverett, budget cutbacks have left several local police stations unmanned except for certain specific hours. He first tried police headquarters, only to find it deserted. Next he tried a sub-station located on Tucson’s ‘Miracle Mile.’ It, too, was locked and dark. Finally, Leverett drove himself straight to the Pima County Jail, and only there was he able to surrender to authorities.”
