"Authorities in Indiana say a man accused of kidnapping and raping an 11-year-old Wheeling, W.Va., girl last February has escaped from jail.
Heilman described Ridings as a "career criminal" who was wanted in three other states.
Ridings was named in a one-count federal indictment in Clarksburg, W.Va., last month. The indictment alleges he took a girl from West Virginia to Belmont County, Ohio, to engage in a sexual act with a person under 12."

Just because a criminal is sent to prison doesn't mean he's going to stay there. Who would like to inform that little girl and her parents that this scumbag is out again?


PS. Wow - the Earth just moved for me ... we've just had a small earthquake! Hope I didn't upset Him Above.
I wasn't aware they had earthquakes in the UK. (I assume you mean England/Scotland/Wales.) Hope everyone's OK. As for upsetting Him, you haven't gotten me totally irked with you yet, so I wouldn't think He would be too angry.
