Authorities are hunting for a convicted killer who was reported missing late Sunday night from a Nelsonville prison.

The Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction has confirmed that John Modie, 58, was absent from the Southeastern Correctional Complex during inmate counts at 11:00 p.m. A thorough search of the facility is being conducted.

The main campus of nearby Hocking College was closed until noon Monday as police search for the escapee, reports CBS Affiliate WBNS.

Modie is currently serving 15 years to life in prison for killing a woman in Cleveland, robbery and escape in 2003. His first parole hearing is set for October 2020.

Modie is described as a white male, 6'4", with grey hair and brown eyes.

Nelsonville, Ohio, in an area that is hilly, wooded, and many old strip mines. (Remembered from a “mini survival training” weekend while an ROTC cadet.)

“Missing”? Who writes these headlines?

How about:

“””Did they check to see if he was at the White House getting a voter registration card and talking points? /s”””

I fail to see the sarcasm.

How about a “convicted” murderer in prison....they’re the worst kind!

I’m surprised it isn’t:

Rehabilitative facility’s most recent resident count indicates the probability of a discrepancy between expected guests and actual guests.

The left knows...He who controls the language, controls the argument and frequently the outcome.

Sodomy is a lifestyle.
Abortion is a choice.
Conservatism is extreme right wing.
Illegal aliens are undocumented guest workers.
etc.

He's mad because he heard someone stole his "Stabby the Clown" costume.

He wants it back!

Can believe AHS killed off that clown so early in that season. Season went down hill from there.

Well, he’s had enough time to walk this far. Might have to lock the door, tonight. And, secure the dogs.

Or not...

hmmm....

Perhaps there are enough residents with “tunnel digging” resumes to make a difference?

“He who controls the language, controls the argument and frequently the outcome.”

That’s why I’ve been trying to get “Invasion of the Border Crashers” started. It just won’t seem to catch on, though.
