Escaped inmate apprehended

| Staff Reporters
Fugitive John Wesley Saatio was on the run when he was apprehended by Santa Rosa County Sheriff’s Office deputies Sunday evening, July 3.  Saatio escaped Saturday when he reportedly fled a private inmate transportation company’s custody at 10:30 p.m. at the I-10 rest area at mile marker 29 in Santa Rosa County.  Saatio was extradited last week from Costa Rica after escaping custody last year in Michigan. News reports state that Saatio also escaped custody in Costa Rica after he was initially caught – and then caught again.
