06/11/2026

Update: BOTH HAVE BEEN APPREHENDED

Ellory Kate Johnson, also known as Kate Nichols and Kate Strickland, is Wanted in Hale County for Theft of Services 1st and Escape 1st Degree.
Ms Johnson was incarcerated in the Hale County Jail until May 11, 2026. On this date Debra Alexander Nichols, (Johnson’s supposed mother) gave the Hale County Corrections Officers a forged court order, with a Circuit Judge’s name attached, stating Johnson could be released. In doing so, Debra Nichols actively helped facilitate Johnson’s Escape.
Johnson and Nichols are both facing felony charges and we ask that anyone with information contact our office.
Furthermore, a thorough investigation is being conducted. All contact Johnson had with individuals on the outside, whether it be family, friends or even jail staff while incarcerated is being reviewed. Any and all participants in Johnson’s Escape will be prosecuted to the full extent.

On This Memorial Day, we come together as a country to remember those valiant souls who gave their lives for the cause of protecting our country and the liberties we enjoy.

Without their bravery, there would be no liberty. Without their strength, we could not have made history.

While today may be a holiday, it is so much more than that. It is an opportunity to show reverence for those who took it upon themselves to answer the nation's call and give their lives for Freedom.

May we never forget their service, may we always honor their memory, and may God continue to bless the families who carry their legacy forward.

God bless our heroes, and God bless America.
