An
Arizona man who fled the U.S. and lived in the Vancouver area after
being convicted of child molestation a decade ago was sentenced Friday
to 240 years in prison.
Arizona prosecutors said Steven Dyer was sentenced on 12 counts of
sexual conduct with a minor and one count of public sexual indecency.Dyer, 44, was returned to Arizona after being arrested in February as he passed through Montreal's Trudeau airport.
Authorities say the 44-year-old Dyer had assumed the identity of a Canadian citizen and was living in Vancouver although he also travelled frequently to Central America and South America.
Vancouver police said after his arrest in Montreal that they were checking previous unsolved sex crimes to try to determine if there was any possible connection to Dyer.
While living in the Phoenix suburb of Scottsdale, Dyer was accused of molesting two boys he befriended over an 18-month period between 1999 and 2001.
Dyer was tried in absentia and convicted in 2002.
