An escaped prisoner is still on the loose in Madison County. Todd Moudy stole a Madison County Sheriff's Office van while he was transported from courthouse to the jailhouse yesterday. Moudy was wearing shackles upon his escape.
A weapon was secured in the van however, it is not known if Moudy was unlocked the container. Madison County Sheriff Randy Tucker said he is suspected to be in the Canton area. Moudy rammed a deputy's vehicle that attempted to block his escape yesterday.

What's he in for?
@12:49 PM - Inappropriate posts on Jackson Jambalaya.
Just kidding :) - pretrial status for drug and firearms charges.
With twenty black and white SUV's assigned to the Sheriff plus the city of Canton PD vehicles and all the other official vehicles around the S.O. building, he rams a Deputy's vehicle and nobody can give chase and the guy is missing for 24 hours in an orange jumpsuit and shackles in a marked, stolen van.
Have I got that about right?
Cue Barn on his motorcycle with sidecar in 3..2..1
Are you sure that's not a photo of the S.O. Night Dispatcher with the diving certificate?
Sounds like another incompetent deputy not paying attention. Also heard, he left his weapon in the Van and wrecked a patrol car chasing the van..
Fire him!!!
Kingfish is kind of slow that is yesterdays news. slacking up there buddy.
@2:49 PM - As you haven't walked in his shoes: His firearm, per policy and SOP, was in a lock box in the van, as firearms aren't allowed into correctional facilities, so they are locked up.
It is not the fault of transporting deputies that they are always outnumbered. Without two or more officers, escape is possible, and it happens. Most inmates know better because they know that there is no defense to escape and they will do some serious time, so they don't go there.
Wait for the facts before you play the expert on all things law enforcement Barney!
He is still on the loose, if he is alive.
425.. you clearly have no idea what you are talking about. This absolutely could have been avoided even though there was only one deputy. I would be extremely surprised if there was a weapon lockbox in the cab of the van. Pure complacency
Screwup by the Sheriff. It’s Hinds County like. How does a prisoner escape and drive off in a van? Why leave the keys in it?
@4:25; Trust me, there is NO LOCKBOX in the van, they put them under the seat, on the seat or between the seat and the console. The lockboxes are on the wall by the door entering the jail in the sallyport.
And he DID NOT have waistchains on. The limited mobility wouldn't have given him the ability to get in the Van that quick, or even stear the Van at high speeds..
He was handcuffed in the front people..
Complacency is correct @ 7:55
Waistchains, you're handcuffed to your waist.
Madison can be fallible..obviously..
4:25 - While you're barking up the wrong apology tree, you forget that the van was left RUNNING by the officer.
According to his fiance on the news night before last, he waved and honked the horn as he sped away!
"He is still on the loose, if he is alive."
Interesting comment by Kingfish. Why would he not 'be alive'?
From WLBT:
"According to Tucker, the transport van did have a weapon inside a lock box inside the van. Officials are not sure if Moudy was able to gain access to the lock box."
Nobody ever escapes in Madison because there is never crime in Madison. This is fake news.
A big black eye for Sheriff Tucker.
I’m wondering if this is the same Todd Moudy who worked for 2 local Fire Sprinkler contractors.? I knew he looked very very familiar
I know Todd Moudy. He has lots of kin in Madison County. He's from Canton. Lived in Florence some I think. He's probably about 46-47 years old. He did work for a fire protection company.
He's trouble and he's dangerous. If you see him, I certainly recommend calling the law and staying away, or being prepared to defend your life. He's trouble. And I mean very dangerous trouble.
113... wouldn’t be the first time they got it wrong and misunderstood what was said or misquoted someone...
@6:35 PM - This is 11:13 AM - I agree.
6:35 and 11:13....Assuming it was misunderstood or misquoted, regardless, why would the sheriff even mention a lock box since the lock box is inside the facility, not inside the van?
Typical Madison County.
Has the van been recovered yet?
@ 5:01, he’s not as bad as you family members make him out to be. He owes me money....always ran....that ain’t bad ass if you ask me. When he gets caught, then I’ll be satisfied
@6:00 I didn't say he was bad ass or tough. I said he was dangerous. He's just mean and stupid enough to shoot you. He's a stupid, sorry, unstable SOB. And folks like that are dangerous. An idiot like him, running from the cops, is dumb enough to kill someone. And he doesn't give a rat's rear end about anyone or anything.
