Fugitive Psychic Arrested In Maryland

By Mark Ackerman

TOWSON, Md. (CBS4) – CBS4 has confirmed a self-proclaimed psychic wanted for crimes in Colorado has been arrested in Baltimore County, Md.

Adam Michael Marks conned a Larimer County woman out of $75,000 in 2012. In a 2014 plea deal, Marks, 33, agreed to repay the victim to avoid six years in jail for stealing from an at-risk adult and other charges. But Marks didn't show up for his sentencing and there has been an active warrant for his arrest for the past 17 months.

On Wednesday, Marks was arrested for the unlawful taking of a motor vehicle and possession of a controlled substance, not marijuana, in Maryland. Officials in Larimer County say the plan to extradite Marks to Colorado but he may have to face the Maryland charges first.
