Look closely at these photos. 
Investigators say they all show the same woman, a cunning master manipulator named Isabelle Johnson, who tonight is on the run and wanted for murder. 
>> I'm just trying to get back to my house. 
>> The Walton County Sheriff's Office releasing this video of the 38-year-old in Florida's panhandle, saying this is what her voice may sound like. 
>> Time up the address. Johnson is wanted in connection with the killing of Jason Coltart, a 43-year-old father who was found dead in a shallow grave last month. 
Authorities have spent weeks searching for Johnson, arresting five people for accessory after the fact to a capital felony. 
>> Our focus right now and our mission right now is finding her so that way we can hold her accountable uh for the homicide. 
>> Investigators warning Johnson has multiple aliases, may have changed her appearance, and should be considered dangerous. 
Authorities say Johnson may even claim to be dealing with hardships like domestic violence so that strangers will give her a ride or money. 
And now the sheriff's office says the reward has increased to up to $16,000 for information that leads to Johnson's arrest.
