Case Story

Jerome Bargo: Leading a Life of Crime

According to officials, Jerome Allen Bargo was only eight years old when he committed his first crime, marking the beginning of a life of crime. At 13, Bargo lived with his uncle who taught him how to break into a safe, and by the age of 31, Bargo was a professional safe cracker and convicted bank robber. On September 16, 1987, Jerome Bargo and an accomplice used a U-Haul truck to rob a local video store in Neosha, Missouri. While driving south through Bentonville, Arkansas, the two men were stopped by Officer David Hugg and Sgt. James Dray, local police who were investigating a series of unrelated robberies.

While the officers were examining the contents of the U-Haul, Bargo stole Huff's gun and fired at Dray. The two exchanged fire, and Dray was hit in the chest. However, Bargo had run into a nearby field. It would not be long before the police caught up with Bargo; he was arrested by Fayetteville police the next day. Jerome Bargo was tried, convicted and sentenced to 140 years in prison, but Bargo had other plans. While in Pope County jail awaiting trial on other charges, Bargo used a make shift saw to cut his way into the air conditioning duct system and out of the building. Bargo hasn't been seen since.
