Convicted NH Crack Cocaine Dealer Is On The Lam: Marshals

CONCORD, NH — The District of New Hampshire - New Hampshire Joint Fugitive Task Force is hunting for a convicted drug dealer with a string of priors who allegedly failed to show up for work while serving at a halfway house, according to the U.S. Marshals Service. Ricky Edward Holloway Jr., 26, was convicted in February 2017, on two counts of possession of crack cocaine with intent to distribute as well as possession of controlled drugs. Back on Aug. 3, he allegedly failed to report to work while staying at the Calumet Halfway House in Manchester – and no one has seen him since.

“Holloway was last known to be in the Manchester area but also has family ties to the state of New York,” noted Deputy Marshal Jeffrey White.

Holloway was convicted on drug charges in Hillsborough County Superior Court and was to serve two concurrent 1- to 2-year sentences after being busted for selling crack during a drug and prostitution sweep in Nashua back in July 2016. He was also in possession of 10 grams of the drug at the time of the arrest, according to a post on Patch. Holloway was indicted in December 2016. He received 198 days of time served at the time of sentencing. He was eligible for parole in July 2017, with a maximum release date of July 25, 2018. Back in August, the New Hampshire Department of Corrections issued an alert after he was placed on walkaway status. Holloway was arrested in 2015 in Greenwich, CT, on criminal impersonation and other charges, according to Patch.
