Havard spent the past seven years in an English jail after his 2004 arrest or involvement with a global identity theft ring with ties to Russian organized crime. Havard, when he fled Texas, had pending state charges that included drug dealing, engaging in organized crime, counterfeiting of IDs and aggravated robbery.

A former Southern Methodist University student who fled the U.S. nearly a decade ago has pleaded guilty to passport fraud.
A federal judge in Dallas on Tuesday accepted the plea from 28-year-old Douglas Havard and ordered him to be sentenced June 20.
Havard, who was extradited this month from England, faces up to 10 years in prison.
Investigators say Havard spent the past seven years in an English jail after his 2004 arrest or involvement with a global identity theft ring with ties to Russian organized crime. Havard, when he fled Texas, had pending state charges that included drug dealing, engaging in organized crime, counterfeiting of IDs and aggravated robbery.
The Dallas Morning News reports defense attorney Paul Coggins says Havard is doing all that he can to accept responsibility.
