Ricky Dale Olsen, 25, disappeared from Tallahassee, Florida after escaping a ten-year sentence for armed robbery at the Palatka Road Prison on July 4, 1975. No confirmed sightings or reliable information about his whereabouts have emerged since the escape.

Olsen was described as between 5 feet 11 inches and 6 feet tall, about 150–160 pounds, with brown hair, blue eyes and scars on his upper lip and chest. He has been listed as a fugitive and missing for decades, and the Florida Department of Corrections and NamUs maintain records tied to his case.

There has been little to no significant information to explain where he went after the escape, and the case remains unresolved. If anyone has verifiable information about where Olsen might have gone or contacts from that time, please share what you know.
