Police have re-arrested Chad Hanson, the informant who led authorities on an unsuccessful search for a missing local man and subsequently escaped from a Waterbury halfway house.
Hanson, 32, had been serving out the remainder of a jail sentence when he fled Bishop House in Waterbury nearly a week ago. In 2008, he gave police information that prompted a massive search for the remains of William “Billy” Smolinski Jr. in Seymour. Smolinski has been missing since Aug. 24, 2004.
