FBI Seeks Emuobosan Hall for Prison Escape, Offers Reward

The FBI has declared Emuobosan Hall, a 46-year-old Nigerian citizen and US permanent resident based in Atlanta, Georgia, wanted after she failed to report to the Bureau of Prisons as ordered. A federal grand jury in New Orleans indicted Hall on October 23, 2026, for this failure.

In January 2026, US District Judge Jane Triche Milazzo sentenced Hall to 96 months in prison following her guilty plea to conspiracy to commit mail and wire fraud and laundering. She was ordered to surrender to a prison in Minnesota by March 25, 2026, but never arrived.

GPS data indicated her last known location was Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport on March 24, 2026. Hall's co-defendant, Kenneth G. Akpieyi, was convicted in July 2025 for his role in a romance scam that caused significant financial losses.

Hall faces up to ten additional years in prison if convicted on the new charge, along with a fine of up to $250,000.
