7. Small Wisconsin and Michigan towns are the worst to hide in.

Everybody knows everybody else. Outsiders stick out.

Of course if it is a tourist town and they change their appearance, they might get away with it for a couple of weeks.

They will have to get a different car and ditch their phones and credit cards.
Maybe break into empty summer cabins.
If they have guns they can live off the land, and not go into town.
Also, I would split up, everyone is looking for a couple.

Someone else here on DU suggested there are Maga and NRA safe houses, underground railroad for gun criminals.
But anyone helping this is going to have charges pressed against them I would think.
The prosecutor is not playing around.
