Federal officials said this week that the 20-year-old Washington state man know as the "Barefoot Bandit" is expected to plead guilty to criminal charges stemming from his 2-year odyssey fleeing from the law in stolen boats, cars and planes.

Colton Harris-Moore is expected to plead guilty on Friday in federal court, the U.S. Attorney's Office in Seattle told CBS news.
