A Wisconsin fugitive wanted on child sexual assault and pornography charges hid out for more than three years in a makeshift bunker that he outfitted with solar panels, a generator and a DIY water filtration system, according to a new report.
Jeremiah Button, 44, vanished in February 2016 just weeks before his scheduled trial.
But several months ago, local hunter Thomas Nelson spotted a bunker with a log door carved into an embankment on state land in the township of Ringle, west of Wausau, local outlet WSAW-TV reported.
Last Friday, curiosity got the best of Nelson and he decided to return to investigate.
“I pushed the door open, and I look inside and I can see canned foods, there’s little storage boxes, and I’m like … I gotta go in,” he said. “I come around the corner a bit and there he is, laying in his bed.”
