Kelly Allen Frank

Who is Kelly Allen Frank?

Kelly Allen Frank is a felon, accused of crafting a plan to kidnap David Letterman's son, Harry Joseph Letterman, in 2005.

On June 8, 2007, he and another man, William J. Willcutt, fled the Montana State Prison ranch in a truck. Officials said the search had concentrated on an area south of the prison where the truck was later found. The two had been assigned to a ranch crew that moves irrigation pipe. A supervisor noticed Willcutt and the truck were missing, and an inmate count revealed Frank was also gone. The search, involving a prison dog and people trained in "man tracking," focused on an area where the ranch's 1965 truck was recovered. Mahoney said the site is in the mountains south of Deer Lodge. Montana authorities declined help from both the New York Police Department and U.S. Department of Homeland Security. After being on the lam for six days, Kelly Allen Frank was captured on June 13, 2007.
