WILLIAM JUNIOR JORDAN

Justice is overdue — the trail went cold in 1974, but the truth hasn't.

Unlawful Flight to Avoid Prosecution - Murder Caution: William Junior Jordan is wanted for the brutal murder of a man in Georgia. On March 6, 1974, James Rouse, Jr., was taken hostage by Jordan and an accomplice and was forced to drive to a nearby lake. There, after walking into the woods, he was shot in the head with a shotgun. Jordan and the accomplice were arrested and, in June of 1974, were convicted and sentenced to life in prison on charges of murder and armed robbery. On August 6, 1984, Jordan escaped from the Wayne Correctional Institution in Odum, Georgia, and has not been seen since that time. Remarks: Jordan has a visual defect which is corrected with glasses.
