Grant Hardin had gained notoriety as the subject of the 2023 documentary “Devil in the Ozarks’’ about his 1997 rape of a school teacher and 2017 murder of a water department worker.

Grant Hardin, the former Arkansas police chief who escaped a Calico Rock, Ark., prison on May 25, has been captured, according to the Stone County Sheriff’s Office.

A new federal court filing shows that investigators believe the convicted murderer and rapist known as the “Devil in the Ozarks” has likely fled Arkansas after escaping prison last month.
