Add Charles Dyer to that list, and seriously, although we are not at all putting any precautionary warnings about him in doubt, if you are someone that is running from child rape charges, chances are, you are too much of a wuss to begin with. Dyer didn&#8217;t even get out of the area. The man is from Oklahoma and they found him in Texas! We guess ultimately this says a lot about his group the Oath Keepers. Dyer is their best known member, and if this is what we can expect from the rest of them, we much rather release them from their &#8220;oath&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>  <!--more-->  <\/p>\n<h3><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.kfor.com\/news\/local\/kfor-fugitives-family-speaks-on-capture-20110826,0,557682.story\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">KFOR.com<\/a><\/h3>\n<p>DUNCAN, Okla. &#8212;&nbsp;An accused child molester from <a class=\"taxInlineTagLink\" id=\"PLGEO100103900000000\" title=\"Oklahoma\" href=\"http:\/\/www.kfor.com\/topic\/us\/oklahoma-PLGEO100103900000000.topic\">Oklahoma<\/a> is no longer a fugitive.

This has to do with an individual, Mr. Charles Dyer,  and the allegations against him for abusing and sexually abusing a very  small, young child,&#8221; Stephens County Sheriff Wayne McKinney said. &#8220;The  militia doesn&#8217;t play a part in that. That&#8217;s a smoke screen to get the  focus off of him.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>And portray the nationwide hunt for Dyer as  harassment&nbsp;of a proclaimed member of anti-government militia groups  instead of an alleged child molester, according to McKinney.<\/p>\n<p>The  sheriff says when Dyer was initially arrested last year, the sheriff has  had personal threats as well as threats made against the county from  militia groups.<\/p>\n<p>Dyer&#8217;s capture Thursday morning is a relief to many.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We  didn&#8217;t want any innocent person to get hurt, and we didn&#8217;t want Mr.  Dyer to get injured and that was accomplished this morning,&#8221; McKinney  said.<\/p>\n<p>Dyer&#8217;s mother, Jan Dyer, is thankful her son wasn&#8217;t harmed in the process.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m  just thrilled law enforcement didn&#8217;t kill him. That&#8217;s what we were  worried about,&#8221; Jan Dyer said. &#8220;Law enforcement has never let us know  that they even caught him yet. We&#8217;ve never been notified. We just praise  God that he&#8217;s safe.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s a manhunt officials believe would be ongoing without the help of several agencies spanning across two states.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think without their help, we&#8217;d still be looking for Mr. Dyer,&#8221; McKinney said.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>It could take several days before Dyer is brought back to Oklahoma.<\/p>\n<p>His run from the law is still under investigation, but officials believe he may have had help from fellow militia members.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Isn&#8217;t it a curious thing how all these hardcore survivalists that end up on the&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":5532,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[38],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1515","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-ye-olde-white-power-chopping-block"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/archive.idavox.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1515","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/archive.idavox.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/archive.idavox.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/archive.idavox.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/archive.idavox.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1515"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/archive.idavox.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1515\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/archive.idavox.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5532"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/archive.idavox.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1515"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/archive.idavox.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1515"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/archive.idavox.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1515"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
