@Tim seems there are people happy to hide him too.

Ferals will always have other ferals looking out for them

No way he hides this long without help. But the cops didn't seem to be pursuing them much for some time

I know a little bit about this case as my parents are local-ish (TA / Oto).

There was a bit of chat in the community about the family dynamics, and this seems to be linked with some of the ambivalence towards pursuit of the father.

PM me if you want to know what I heard.

I got a sense that the locals must feel he's justified in his actions. Otherwise he'd be caught already

He’s giving to big pharma/the man/deep state/libtards. (delete as apporopriate)

I read somewhere he is quite religious, that might guide his views.

Despite all the recent activity in the area I am pleased to report it hasn't frightened off the delicious Marokopa River whitebait.

Odd how the mothers surname is never mentioned in these articles.

Nut case, who is a violent criminal, robbed a bank, and shot at a supermarket employee. Carries a gun

This. There can be supposed justifications for those aiding and abetting him, but this guy isn't exactly an upstanding citizen himself...
