Gripped with fear, residents of a small Arkansas community are locking their doors and looking over their shoulders as a massive manhunt continues for a convicted rapist and killer who escaped from prison earlier this week and now is suspected to be hiding in a network of hidden caves in the Ozark Mountains.
Known as the “Devil in the Ozarks” after a HBO documentary about him, Grant Hardin lived a double life as a police chief of a small town until he was later convicted for murder and rape in 2018.
