Patrick Giblin, 56, of Atlantic City, New Jersey, was arrested and charged with escape from custody after fleeing from a federal prison in Pennsylvania to a residential living facility in Newark.
According to the complaint and court documents, Giblin made his escape on July 23, 2020, while traveling from a federal prison in Lewisburg, Pennsylvania, to a residential living facility in Newark, where he had been directed to serve the remainder of a federal prison sentence.
Giblin was previously serving a sentence for traveling interstate and using an interstate facility to promote unlawful activity in connection with a scheme to defraud multiple women. He had also been convicted of a similar fraud scheme in 2007, receiving a 115-month sentence for wire fraud.
The U.S. Marshals Service located and arrested Giblin in Atlantic City on March 10, 2021.
Giblin is now facing up to five years in prison if convicted of the escape charge.
Acting U.S. Attorney Rachael A. Honig credited the U.S. Marshals Service with the investigation leading to the arrest and charges.
The government is represented by Assistant U.S. Attorney Gabriel J. Vidoni of the U.S. Attorney’s Office’s Criminal Division in Camden.
