Overview

  • Deputy U.S. Marshals arrested Ronald Keith Harvey on June 12, 2025, in Nevada City following a data sweep that yielded a new lead.
  • Harvey escaped FCI Dublin in 1994 while serving time for a large-scale marijuana operation involving over 600 plants and firearms.
  • He had lived since October with DeeVee Brown, who said she was unaware of his fugitive status despite monthly checks with the Nevada County sheriff.
  • Harvey still has about four years remaining on his original sentence and now faces extra prison time for escape and evading authorities.
  • FCI Dublin closed in 2024 after an Associated Press report on alleged sexual abuse and had housed inmates such as Lori Loughlin and Felicity Huffman.
