Richland County authorities are currently searching for an escapee. Nathan Ellison was court-ordered to report to the Richland County Sheriff’s Office at noon on Tuesday. Upon arrival in the parking lot, he removed his ankle monitor and fled.
Ellison was supposed to be transported to the Illinois Department of Corrections following a conviction for failure to register as a sex offender. Under the recently enacted Safety Act, he was placed on electronic home monitoring instead of being detained after his conviction.
If you have any information regarding Nathan Ellison’s whereabouts, please contact Richland County Dispatch at 618-393-2921 or email Detective Jonah Laws at jlaws@richlandcounty.illinois.gov.
