The Feds Caught Tennessee Intern!

Tennessee prison escapee caught not too far from the prison. He murdered a prison worker who was well-loved.

This white rapist and kidnapper will now have a murder charge on his belt.

The intern murdered Debra Johnson, a 64-year old employee who watched the work farm. The rapist escaped a Tennessee iron college on a tractor and stayed free for nearly a week.

He was caught in the town of Henning after folks recognized him from the digital billboard.

The suspect was caught on Sunday, hours after a resident spotted him near his property.

The suspect was appearing downbeat in the back of a patrol hall after he was caught on home security cameras opening an outdoor refrigerator at the home.

The Tennessee Highway Patrol and FBI have aided in the search of this dangerous individual.

Looks can be deceiving.

TBI (The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation) said a resident alerted authorities the moment he saw his Ring Door camera capture him in the neighborhood.

The rapist took off his iron college attire and apparently stole clothes from a home. He was dressed in camouflage bib overalls, dressed in a hat and carrying a camp backpack. So the feds and state authorities are trying to determine if he murdered a resident or stole them from a property.

Dozens of law enforcement were in a 50 mile radius searching for him. They knew that he was capable of changing his appearance. He was heavily tattooed and often shaved his head to distract residents from believing he's the wanted.

Johnson, a 38-veteran with the Tennessee Corrections service was found in her home on the property with a cord wrapped around her neck. The rapist sexually assaulted her and beat her before strangling her.

Tennessee prison worker was raped and murdered at her home on the prison property.

The rapist was serving three nickels for aggravated kidnapping, was discovered missing when officials issued a blue alert. They found Johnson's body and pinpointed to the missing intern.

He was on good behavior and given the opportunity to use the farm equipment to maintain property.

I guess he ruined it for all the interns. The Tennessee state corrections board will ban all interns from operating vehicles and having time to do laboring during daylight.

Now this intern is assured a trip to federal time out. He escaped a state iron college. He murdered an employee of the state. He have stolen from a person's property. He has a rape charge. He has a failure to return to employees charge. All these charges make him eligible for the DEATH card. He also has to be sent to a USADX for that.

The suspect is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

Debra Johnson's family are relieved that this intern was caught. However, they were angered that the state failed to keep this dangerous individual from accessing employee's homes.

The grandmother of seven (and counting) and mother of three grew up in North Nashville's Haynes Manor neighborhood and moved west of the city three years ago to take a new position with the Tennessee Department of Corrections.

Ms. DJ as many knew her deserved the respect. She helped interns through their time.
