COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo.—Colorado Springs police are watching out for an escaped convict from Kentucky who has family in Colorado.
Former Army Ranger John Calvin Buckley IV of Lexington, Ky., fled a courthouse July 12 while a jury was deliberating charges against him last week. Police there say he cut off an ankle monitor that he was wearing as a part of the conditions for release on bond.
The jury convicted him of rape, sodomy, fourth-degree assault and unlawful imprisonment.
Colorado Springs police spokeswoman Barbara Miller tells The Gazette ( ) investigators can’t definitively say Buckley headed to Colorado Springs, but officers are being proactive because they know he has family in the area.
