Gregory Allen Graham's MySpace Profile
Panama City, Florida (The Weekly Vice) -- Gregory Allen Graham, a 34-year-old police officer who became a fugitive after his arrest on child molestation and incest charges was captured Saturday after a two hour suicide stand-off with Panama City authorities.
Graham, a former Fulton County, Georgia police officer was originally arrested on April 4 on two counts of child molestation, four counts of incest, one count of statutory rape, possession of anabolic steroids and attempt to suborn perjury.
Coweta County authorities say Graham allegedly engaged in an ongoing sexual relationship with an under-aged female relative. Authorities also say they found Graham in possession of anabolic steroids and that he repeatedly attempted to influence witnesses in the case. Police first became aware of the alleged activity when the victim's mother reported it to authorities and the victim reportedly confirmed the allegations.
Graham was released on a $50,000 bond while awaiting trial. Court records indicate Graham failed to appear for a Coweta Superior Court hearing on Monday. When Graham failed to appear again on Wednesday, he was declared a fugitive and a warrant was issued for his arrest.
When authorities received word that he might be in Florida, Bay County, Florida sheriff's deputies tracked Graham down to a motel he was staying at along Thomas Dr. in Panama City. Deputies raided the motel room and found Graham's firearms, ammunition and truck, but Graham was not in the room.
Authorities began an intense search of the area for several days that included K-9 units and an air unit who finally discovered Graham lying in a nearby wooded marsh at about 2:00 a.m. Saturday morning. As officers closed in, they discovered Graham had cut his wrists and was holding a hunting knife to his throat. Bay County Hostage Negotiators were called in, who spent approximately two hours talking to Graham before he finally released the knife and surrendered to authorities at about 4:00 a.m..
Authorities revealed they were able to narrow down Graham's wherabouts by tracking a signal from his cell phone.
“We are extremely proud of the extraordinary effort Investigator Jason Fetner and Investigator Matt Kee did in tracking this guy since Wednesday,” said Assistant District Attorney Kevin McMurry. “They worked relentlessly their entire Thanksgiving to apprehend him.”
Graham now sits in the Bay County Jail while he awaits extradition back to Georgia.
The Weekly Vice Opinion:
We spend a lot of time hammering Florida because of it's unusually high number of freaks and it's quirky methods of law enforcement. But once in a while, we run into a sheriff's office in that God-forsaken state that truly impresses us. Nice work to the Bay County Sheriff's department for tracking this guy right down to the marsh he was laying belly-down in! Excellent work.

Ooh, he's a cop and a child molester? Bubba n' them are gonna have a real good time with him! I'm sure the jailers are going to forget about protective custody for this sick freak. I hope they do, anyway!
No Doubt Florida is Full of Weirdos and perverts as well as Stupid criminals
wow
look at his myspace comments little 15 yo girls calling him daddy
what a quality pig
nooo, he's calling her his baby I think.
But if you research hard enough, you'll see a sort of a dispute brewing with another kid, not one in the pictures. I'd bet prosecutors were right that he was trying to talk them out of it.
Jeez, what seemed to be a big bad cop, instead turned out to be a baby who threw a tantrum at the end.
To the girl and her mother - I know it must have been extremely hard to speak up and turn this guy in. No one could possibly understand how many kinds of hard that probably was - but in time, you'll see it was the right thing. It wouldn't surprise me if the steroid use had something to do with his behavior.
Hang in there, family. We know there's a lot more behind the story than just the bullet points.
hope you get to feelin
better big daddy. :)

How come we don't talk these types INTO killing themselves? It sure would cut down the use of extraneous resources.
