(Above photo credit: arkansasonline.com) Additional photos of Freeman: www.facebook.com/pg/Justice-for-Lori-165231314035136/photos/?ref=page_internalFugitive Profile as of April 9th, 2017: (Based on online US Marshals wanted poster/ID channel "In Pursuit" profile) Alias: Kewee Freeman Sex: Male Race: White or White Hispanic Date of Birth: 2/19/1976 Height: 5'7" Weight: 135 lbs Tattoos: -Right forearm: name “Jackson” -Back of left forearm: name “Kewee,” written in gothic letters -Left shoulder: half moon and stars; name “Makayla” with a chain underneath -Right shoulder: Name “Justin” -Praying hands -Right calf: unknown design From katv.com: WARD (KATV) — U.S. Marshals have joined the search for 41-year-old Brian Freeman, a murder suspect out of Ward. According to Kevin Sanders, supervisory deputy with the U.S. Marshals Service for the Eastern District of Arkansas, Freeman’s truck was found abandoned in a field in Royse, Texas. Sanders tells Channel 7 someone called authorities after finding the truck with the windows down, and keys and some personal belongings still inside. Freeman is accused of killing his ex-fiance’, 35-year-old Lori Hannah. "She was the best aunt and the best mom that anyone could ever ask for,” said Destiny McMumm, Lori Hannah’s niece. "She was always there for me no matter what I needed,” says Libby Pickney, Lori Hannah’s life-long friend. “That's just how she was. She would drop everything and be there for me, which she would do for anyone." On Thursday, March 23rd, Ward police found the mother dead inside her home on Pintar Lane. McMunn saw a post on Facebook about crime scene tape outside her aunt's house, so she called and texted Hannah's phone, but didn’t get a response. The next day, Arkansas State Police issued a capital murder warrant for Freeman’s arrest. Details on how Hannah died are not being released. "She had called off the engagement and that's what led to this," said Pickney. "He couldn't accept it and was like if I can't have her nobody else can have her," said McMunn. While Freeman hasn't been found yet, Hannah's family is holding out hope. "We need closure, and we need questions answered, and we need justice for her," says McMunn. Authorities consider Freeman to be armed and dangerous. If you see him, you’re asked to call U.S. Marshals at (501)324-6256.Hannah’s family is offering a $5,000 cash reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction. A cash reward of an unknown amount is also being offered by the U.S. Marshals Service. katv.com/news/local/murder-victims-family-holds-out-hope-after-suspects-truck-foundThoughts? UPDATE: As of January 16th, 2019, anyone with information on this fugitive's whereabouts can also call or text "In Pursuit" on the Investigation Discovery channel at 833-378-7783 and/or submit a tip at the show's website: www.InPursuitTips.comAdmin Note: If you have any (news-related) updates on this case, please contact us here: amwfans.com/thread/1662/website-contact-form

If I had just seen Brian Freeman's photo without knowing he was wanted for capital murder, his appearance alone would scare me and I feel tells me everything I need to know about him.
Also I checked and there is around a five hour distance between Ward, Arkansas and Royse, Texas. Perhaps he has family or other contacts in the Royse area that would justify him travelling that big of a distance yet abandoning his car there.

Since he wanted for that crime, He might be a perfect candaidte for US Marshals Top 15 List.

So I saw the segment now- apparently Freeman indicated to those close to him he may commit suicide- the U.S. Marshals interviewed on the show don't buy it, say he embellishes stories, and believe he's alive somewhere. (Although they did seem to acknowledge suicide as a theoretical possibility). Also the Marshals on the show describes his tattoos: "He'll have black star tattoos on his elbows. On his right forearm he's got the name 'Jackson,' and on the back of his left forearm he's got the name 'Kiwi.' He's also got a moon and stars tattooed on his upper arm, it's got the name 'Makayla.' He's also got the name 'Justin' tattooed on his upper arm. He's also got a chain, he's got praying hands, and I believe there's a tattoo on his calf." It should also be stressed Freeman is believed to have a firearm with him and should be considered armed and dangerous. Finally, I found a Justice for Lori Facebook page that shows multiple photos of Brian Keith "Kewee" Freeman: www.facebook.com/Justice-for-Lori-165231314035136/www.facebook.com/pg/Justice-for-Lori-165231314035136/photos/?ref=page_internal

I'm not really buying the suicide theory. The Eastern part of Arkansas is probably several hours away from Royse, Texas where Brian's vehicle was located. Why would he travel such a far distance only to kill himself?

Agreed. They said he left his ID and wallet in the truck, but they believe it could have been a deliberate attempt to throw authorities off which I think makes sense. If Freeman has to plan a run/go on the run, he can't be Brian Keith Freeman anymore and will have to make do under a new name/alias, so that identification is now useless to him anyway.

A potential clue on Freeman from last night's In Pursuit airing is that he is known to be a very sociable person but one who uses people to get what he wants such as bumming cigarettes etc...

Earlier in the month, Counts was convicted and sentenced to 2 1/2 years in prison. Incredulously, his supposed excuse was that he was an alcoholic and helped Freeman thinking it was joke and then went along with it wanting to fit in. www.nwaonline.com/news/2019/oct/16/man-gets-prison-for-lying-to-lawmen-201/Melissa Brock, also charged in relation to aiding Freeman's escape, will go on trial on January 27th of next year.
