Or the Eric Frein case in Pennsylvania, where the idea of searching abandoned buildings in the area apparently never occurred to the elite state and Federal police agencies.

You don't have to be smart to hide from the police... you just have to be smarter than the police. Of course, they have the advantages of unlimited money, unlimited patience, and (apparently) unlimited surveillance power, so staying hidden for the rest of your life is going to be a lot harder than dropping out of sight in the first place.

Frein was probably a case of too obvious. You have a woodsman hiding in the woods. Where do you look? Looking in old buildings is obvious, but also exactly where you'd think frein would expect the police to look and the last place he'd hide. Still should have looked a little closer, but it's like I knew you'd know I would you'd know I would know not to hide there...
