Florida Investigators Release 3 Tattoo Clues in Hunt for Murder Suspect Isabelle Johnson

3 articles · Updated · abcnews.com · Jul 24

Summary

  • Walton County investigators published new images of three tattoos linked to Isabelle Johnson, a 38-year-old murder suspect who has eluded arrest for about a month.
  • Authorities say Johnson has been cutting and dyeing her hair and using multiple aliases to avoid capture, prompting the sheriff's office to highlight identifying marks on her hand, ankle and thigh.
  • A reward of up to $16,000 is being offered for information leading to her arrest, and officials warned the public not to approach her because she is considered dangerous.
  • The search stems from the killing of 43-year-old Jason Coulthart, whose remains were found in a shallow grave on June 25 and later confirmed by DNA; five other people have been charged, including two accused of helping Johnson evade investigators.
