Wynn was booked into the J. Reuben Long Detention Center in Conway awaiting extradition proceedings. In announcing the arrest, United States Marshal Johnny Mack Brown said, “It is very gratifying to apprehend someone who has been on the run for so long. He was able to evade capture for over two years, but now Wynn will have to answer his charges in Maryland.”
