Authorities in Mississippi are searching for a convicted killer they say escaped from prison Tuesday who they say is "desperate."
The George County Sheriff's Office says Drew Johnson, 33, managed to get out of the South Mississippi Correctional Institution in Leakesville.
In a post on Facebook the office says Johnson "will be desperate and very very dangerous. Call your family and alert them. Send messages to them and get responses. People tend to be more generous during Christmas and let their guard down. Be vigilant and be careful. Please share this."
President Biden on Monday signed into law a defense bill that authorizes significant pay raises for junior enlisted service members, aims to counter China's growing power and boosts overall military spending to $895 billion despite his objections to language stripping coverage of transgender medical treatments for children in military families.
