FBI wants info on dead prisoner in search for Arkansas girl
Federal investigators say a man who died in prison more than two decades ago is now considered a person of interest in the 1995 disappearance of an Arkansas girl
“Today, law enforcement may be closer than ever to identifying” Nick’s abductor, the FBI said in a news release. FBI spokesman Connor Hagan said this is the first time the bureau has publicly identified someone as a person of interest in Morgan’s disappearance.
Arkansas’ missing child-alert system is named for Morgan.
Hagan declined to say if investigators have any evidence connecting him to Nicks’ disappearance. Authorities in 2017 searched an eastern Oklahoma property that had been previously been searched in the case.
Lincks was raised in Crawford County, Arkansas and returned to Van Buren in the 1970s after serving in the Army during World War II and working at Braniff Airlines in Dallas, Texas from 1962 until 1974, the FBI said. Lincks attempted to abduct a young girl in Van Buren at a location eight miles from the baseball field where Morgan was taken, the FBI said.
“We know that there’s people who have more information about him, who knew where he was during certain times of his life who can give information to us,” Hagan said.
The FBI asked anyone with any information about Lincks to contact the FBI at 1-800-CALL-FBI.
