Oh no - a sex offender working in their home (presumably) around their children.

So Stefan doesn't think he's involved but thinks this guy knows something? This case is just bizarre to me.

Marshals arrested Harden in October in Carroll County. Investigators interviewed him about the search for Heather McDonald, but Marshals said they were not directly involved in the investigation into her disappearance.

​

“We looked for him as part of a fugitive investigation,” US Marshals Service Supervisor told CBS46 News. “The U.S. Marshal's Service was not part of the missing person case of Heather McDonald.”

So they picked him up for something else and just happened to ask him about Heather? But the investigators who asked him questions are not involved in Heather's case? Shouldn't he be interviewed by investigators who ARE involved in Heather's case? Maybe it's a minor detail. I just hope he talks if he knows anything!

Anyone think this is his facebook account? https://www.facebook.com/people/Ricky-Harden/100007330788389
I don't have a facebook.
In reference to IGB74 post on 11alive.com

Yes, looks like the same man.
I thought RSO weren't allowed FB pages.
Oh he isn't registered.
Been out of jail since 2010...
SM has known him?
I wonder how long.

WOW! That does appear to be his FB and he is friends with HM's mother and stepfather (who knows the extent?). But if he had something to do with her disappearance, I cannot even imagine the betrayal. Looking over the rest of his FB friends is borderline disgusting. Why is a 57 year old sex offender befriending these young girls, in addition to the foreigners and 'gay adult film star'? Obviously, I have my suspicions. One of the sex offender sites lists RH as 6'0" and 260 lbs., pretty scary. I still can't tell if SM said that RH 'was' on the list he gave of POI's when she first disappeared? But doesn't think he's involved?

He has another FB linked to that one as well. Shouldn't he be on the RSO registry? He did come up as one on Family Watchdog. The 11 alive feed said SM knew him 'several years'.

Ricky Harden is friends on FB with HM's mother Lisa Chatman.

RH's address given on Family Watchdog is 2.2 miles from HM's home, about a 6 minute drive.

If it was so minor why put a gun to his head? Info posted in links above.

Wow...didn't have time to check out his fb friends....very interesting! I agree it would be very sad that he was trusted by family.

Do we know the so he was put away for? Sorry if it had been posted. I am trying to read and feed my guys. Thanks!!!

I didn't know that about rso and fb. I am sure there are a few rso or non registered sex offenders that don't follow the rules.

makes perfect sense. she probably initially approached him willingly. she thought she knew him.

He reminds me of a man I use to babysit for as a young teen.
