Former Business Executive Still on the Run
 
COLUMBUS, OH – The hunt for former National Century Financial Enterprises Inc. executive Rebecca Parrett continues. On March 28, 2008 a U.S. District court judge issued an arrest warrant for Parrett after she failed to report to the Pretrial Services Office near her home in Carefree, Arizona. Parrett was convicted on several counts of fraud on March 13, 2008 and was facing up to 20 years in prison on the more serious counts. Victims in the case suffered losses totaling $2 billion.

“In our investigation, we’ve learned that Ms. Parrett has health related issues. Her family, associates and friends should understand that she is not receiving the proper medical attention that is required,” said United States Marshal for the Southern District of Ohio, Jim Wahlrab.
“I’d encourage anyone with information regarding the possible whereabouts of Rebecca Parrett to call our 24-hour tip line at (614) 469-5540.”

Tips that are received by the United States Marshals Service are kept confidential and callers can remain anonymous. Authorities are offering a reward for anyone offering information that leads to the capture of this federal fugitive.
