Case Story |
|
| |
A Strange Encounter |
|
| |
Morris Tyrone Jackson has spent the past three decades of his life as a fugitive. It all started on June 11, 1976, when a social worker and detective paid a visit to the Jackson residence in Florida to follow-up on allegations that he was sexually abusing his children.
Police say Jackson was in the middle of a fantasy game with his stepdaughter when they arrived that day. When the nine-year-old girl answered the door, she was wearing a blond wig , and her bra was stuffed with tissue. Detectives immediately started questioning Jackson, and planned to arrest him. But he had other plans.
During questioning, cops say Jackson asked his daughter to get a plastic bag from inside the house. Police say he then explained that he wanted to give his children candy from the bag, but police say he had more than candy--there was a gun in the bag, too. Before the investigators could see what was happening, Jackson allegedly grabbed the revolver and shot the detective.
After a short gunfight, Jackson took off and headed for the woods. The wounded detective was rushed to the hospital, and later recovered from his injuries. Jackson's family told police that Jackson was shot during the gun battle, and probably died in the woods. But police never believed them. Years later, cops found out they were right. |

Fake ID Can't Mask Fugitive's Distinctive Traits |

More than 10 years after the initial incident, police caught up with Jackson. But they didn't know it at the time. In June, 1987, an police officer stopped Jackson for a traffic violation in Florida. Jackson gave the officer a fake name -- James Alan Harris--but by the time Jackson's true identity was revealed, he was gone again.
Police believe that Jackson is still alive, living as a fugitive. Although he's eluded capture all these years, you'd know him if you saw him: Jackson walks with a cane, speaks with a stutter and has a metal plate in his head. He's missing some of his upper teeth and has a deformed pinky finger on his right hand. Police think he could be living somewhere in Florida, and might be seeking work in migrant communities. |
