A Phelps County inmate, who faces federal charges accusing him of planning to travel to Texas to shoot immigrants crossing the border illegally and any U.S. Border Patrol agent who tried to stop him, escaped from jail on Friday night.
Jonathan O’Dell of Warsaw, Missouri, and another inmate broke out of the Rolla jail by “compromising the structural integrity of his cell,” according to the FBI. The second inmate turned himself into law enforcement a short time later.
The FBI and the Phelps County Sheriff’s Office are continuing to search for O’Dell. Law enforcement officials consider O’Dell, a member of a group that calls itself the “2nd American Militia,” to be extremely dangerous because of numerous weapons charges.

..."Authorities say he was last seen wearing a maroon-colored shirt with a Phelps County logo and brown slacks with a tan stripe. He is considered extremely dangerous and was being held in the jail for several weapons charges.
The FBI in Kansas City also sent out a release on O’Dell. According to the FBI, a federal indictment says O’Dell allegedly planned to travel to Texas to shoot at illegal immigrants crossing the United States – Mexico border. The indictment also alleges he planned to murder officers and employees of the U.S. Border Patrol who would attempt to stop them.
In October 2022, the FBI went to search his home but special agents were fired at several times. The agents did not fire back and after the gunshots ended, the FBI put up a perimeter and began communicating with the persons inside the residence to come out.
Anyone with information on his whereabouts is encouraged to call 911, FBI St. Louis at [login to see] or FBI Kansas City at [login to see] ."...
