LONDON, Ky. (LEX 18) — Police are on the lookout for a Corbin man who they say shot and killed his girlfriend earlier in the week.
Kentucky State Police have issued an arrest warrant for 38-year-old Nicholas M. Rucker.
Troopers were called out Wednesday evening to a shooting at a home on Kentucky Highway 1064 in Woodbine.
Whitley County Coroner’s Office officials said 57-year-old Vicki S. Conner of Corbin was pronounced dead at the scene of apparent gunshot wounds.
Police later said Rucker, whom they described as Conner’s boyfriend, was wanted for the slaying.
Authorities ask anyone with information about Rucker’s whereabouts to call Kentucky State Police Post 11 at 606-878-6622 or 1-800-222-5555.

Thoughts? I am placing Rucker in the Fugitives on TV section because he was the subject of a "Wanted" segment on the June 1st, 2019 episode of A&E's "Live PD": m.twitter.com/OfficialLivePD/status/1135009875136720896
Based on that coverage and numerous articles since, it would seem Rucker is unfortunately still at large as of this posting date (June 16th, 2019)
It is important to note that Rucker is ALREADY a convicted murderer: In 1999, Rucker was sentenced to 20 years in prison for the murder of his own 3-month-old son (it is said he shook his son to death): www.thetimestribune.com/news/murder-suspect-reportedly-spotted-near-exit-in-corbin/article_02c2e668-819d-11e9-9eae-433b8d23ae51.html
So this is a guy that was proven in a court of law to have murderer his son and now allegedly murdered his girlfriend as well. This imo makes him an extreme danger to EVERYONE, and I really hope the continued publicity from Live PD and other media helps towards his apprehension before anyone else is hurt.
