CONCORD, NH — The New Hampshire Department of Corrections is asking for the public’s help finding a felon wanted on parole violations who has a history of violence.

Ashley Seleen Hodgdon is 31, about 5 feet, 1 inch tall, and weighs around 150 pounds. She has brown hair and eyes and numerous tattoos — including a hatchet man and a nautical star on her neck, a nautical star on her forearm, mushrooms with her birthdate on her foot, two hearts on her back, and the words “Ain’t no woman alive that can take my mama’s place” on her upper back, too.

Hodgdon was accused of parole violations after being released from jail after being convicted of second-degree assault, with bodily injury, against a child under 13 in Rockingham County Superior Court after an October 2015 incident in Deerfield. The victim was beaten with a broom. She was paroled in November 2018 and accused of immediately living in a sober facility.

Hodgdon has also been known to live in Concord and Manchester. She sometimes uses the aliases Ashley Whiting, Ashley Huckins, Ashley Hodge, and Ashley Hodgon.

A “history of violence” warning was put on the alert due to her previous violent tendencies — including trying to grab a cop’s gun, reckless conduct with a deadly weapon, assault, and threat charges, as well as drug possession and fraud charges.

Anyone with information about Hodgdon was asked to call the local police, the NH DOC at 603-271-1804, or the Rockingham County Sheriff’s Office at 603-679-2241.
