John Deere Credit Union robbery suspect Hadley, linked to a July 21 1983 Waterloo cash haul, faces up to 20 years in prison and a 30000 dollar fine if convicted on three Iowa charges while Texas federal counts carry 15 years and 250000 dollars. He awaits bond hearing in Harris County Jail Houston. Hadley, using the Finley alias for years, was identified by a Friendswood Texas police lieutenant after a FBI flier. He admitted being Hadley to authorities and said he would cooperate. Authority notes he traveled from Waterloo to Chicago with two 75 pound suitcases and later bought a cash home in Friendswood. His ex-wife Kathryn, and their three children, have moved on since the disappearance. The NBC Unsolved Mysteries episode on the case will air May 6 with a new update after his arrest.
