Investigators released new images of accused murderer Isabelle Johnson's tattoos, as the search for her continues. 

Investigators say Johnson, 38, has been changing her appearance and using multiple identities to evade arrest.

Walton County Sheriff's Office has been searching for Johnson for a month since the remains of 43-year-old Jason Coulthart were found in a shallow grave in Florida. 

Johnson has been charged with Coulthart's murder.

She also appears to have a tattoo on her right ankle (design unknown), as well as a large scorpion tattoo extending from her left buttock down her left thigh," the sheriff's office said in a statement Thursday.
