Manhunts, Fugitives, Abductions, Missing Persons

Update 6/6/2025 8:30pm EST - Suspect has been captured later in the day. Comment: Other concerns may also exist besides just captured/ not captured, such as how did he sustain. Original story published about 9:15am EST Friday June 6, 2025 - Hardin escaped from Calico Rock prison in Arkansas last Sunday. US Marshals are looking for him. According to recent reports, at least an entire workweek has gone by since the escape, and he has not been apprehended. A development that amplifies that there is danger in the skill sets, experience, and keenness of G. M. Hardin, age 56 or about, hovering around 6ft 250 or so, is that he escaped the institution through the use of presentment with (wearing) an outfit that looked like a security guard or police uniform; it may have been black or very dark in color, along with a matching soft derby hat. Hardin also is reputed to have a familiarity of the Ozark Mountain region'. He may have been from Garfield, Ar, was chief at Gateway, and held different law enforcement posts. Criminal background reports say he was convicted of a 1997 rape of an elementary teacher around 2016 (estimated he was in late 20s then) after a DNA matchup, and believed to have committed a firearms related murder of in-law early 2017 which he pleaded guilty to. He had a kitchen job at the Calico prison. Calico Rock is near the very north of Arkansas at about the middle spot between east and west of the State. That spot is just south of the border with Missouri, so almost equidistant to the 2 big cities in MO, of St. Louis and Kansas City, 255 to 315 miles. Bloodhounds are being used in the aid of the effort for his capture. Psychology and collaboration might have some solutions. Hopefully, an individual that may be given to reading and meditation, (at that it is conjecturably he's got a cell phone, something to read, navigate, communicate with), he is not equipped with a firearm at this time, long or short range, camouflage and so on. Alert may benefit from including not selling firearms to someone that may appear to be buying it on behalf of someone else.
