CONCORD, NH — The New Hampshire Department of Corrections is asking for the public’s help finding a prior fugitive with a lengthy criminal history including parole violations.

Ashley Seleen Hodgdon is white, about 5 feet tall, and weighs around 150 pounds. She has brown hair and eyes. Hodgdon has several tattoos, including a hatchet man on the left side of her neck, writing on her chest, a nautical star on her right forearm, and a running man and a diamond on her left forearm. She sometimes uses the alias “Ashley Huckins,” according to investigators.

Hodgdon was a prior fugitive of the week about this time last year. She was found and arrested in South Carolina and returned to New Hampshire. Hodgdon was then re-released on parole in September 2023 after checking into a sober house, investigators said. However, she left the sober house and stopped reporting to her parole officer, investigators stated.
