One of Los Angeles County's 10 "most wanted" child support-payment evaders was arrested Tuesday.
One of Los Angeles County's 10 "most wanted" alleged child support-payment evaders was arrested within a week of his photo being posted, authorities said Wednesday.
Abdoul R. Sesay, who allegedly owes $427,000, was arrested Tuesday at an apartment in Marina del Rey, according to county officials.
Sesay was the third target on the list to be netted. The first, Michael W. Davis, was arrested before the announcement of a new program that was launched to track down the county's most egregious offenders. The second, Michael Lee, turned himself in one day after his photo was circulated.
Sesay, who was released on 36 months probation, owes more than any of the other 10 most wanted. He will have to pay $20,000 by May 1 and thereafter make monthly payments of $1,695 or go back to jail for 90 days, said David Sommers, aide to county Supervisor Don Knabe.
