AMW Captures Directory (1988-2013)

AMW Capture Roster, 12th Century and beyond

Manson Brown, #1100, Jnr 3, 2010
A convicted armed robber and home invader. He raped a woman in 1996 and was indicted for rape. In November 2009, he escaped from a minimum security prison in Massachusetts. Aired as a Breaking News Alert on the 12-12-009 broadcast, he was busted within 72 hours into the new decade at a DeKalb County, Georgia gas station.

Myfit "Mike" Dika, #1101, Jnr 25, 2010
An Albanian mob chieftain from the La Costa Nostra family. The gang was notorious for a code of silence and control that made Omerta look playful. Dika and his partner in crime, Kujtim "Timmy" Lika, trafficked illicit and counterfeit goods, heroin, and cocaine through New York. Dika lived a strange fast-paced lifestyle that involved frittering his money away on card games and staying awake for 48 hours on end, high on cocaine. Dika had further admiration from his crime family for refusing to rat out his fellow drug dealers, serving all 10 years of a decade-long sentence, and receiving a huge payout from the network... until he promptly blew the money on his lousy Texas Hold'em performance. In March 2009, they were among a few who'd evaded Operation Black Eagle, and Lika and Dika were introduced on AMW that November. Dika was busted in the town of Etobicoke, in Toronto, Canada. He looked disheveled from life on the run. Timmy Lika, by then wanted for questioning in a murder, was nabbed as an empty capture in April 2012.

Philip Leland Riley, #1102, Fbr 3, 2010
A health nut known for his kidney disease and peculiar habit of painting his nails. In November 2008, he entered a YMCA locker room in Beaverton, Oregon on a mission, then raped a 9 year old boy. Over the next 1 1/4 year, he'd fled to Panama, and was aired on the 15 Seconds of Shame on 10-10-009, but by the winter of 2010, his kidney disease was turning for the worse. He went to a medical clinic to seek treatment, but the staff instead searched his name on the internet, found his amw.com webpage, and busted him. He's now serving 1/4 century in prison.

Patrick Anthony Brown, #1103, Fbr 9, 2010
John Walsh's 2008 50/50 Fugitive #MA2. By the spring of 1995, a man started dating Patrick's ex-girlfriend, and he stabbed the man to death as revenge at the end of that May. The victim had already been through a lot because one of his relatives had been murdered before and another had died in a household fire. In 2005 and 2006, Patrick was aired at least twice on the 15 Seconds of Shame, and 14.6 years after the murder, an amw.com visitor busted him trying to board a boat from Belize to Guatemala. He's now serving life in prison.

Larry L Deffenbaugh (RELEASED), #1104, Fbr 16, 2010
From 1993 to 2006, he owned a cemetery, pulling off various scams against more than 550 grieving families. In 2006, the scam was exposed when one woman found out her father had been buried in a cheap cardboard box, rushed to entomb his body in a proper coffin before it could decompose, and drove through a vigorous rainstorm to secure the paperwork and make the payments to another cemetery. Deffenbaugh convinced his daughter to assist in the scams, and she was arrested but Deffenbaugh faked his death in a boating explosion in the Chesapeake Bay. He was given a 15 Seconds of Shame airing in November 2009, but it was his Lost At Sea segment on the 2-13-010 broadcast that yielded his capture in Baytown, Texas. By then, he was wheelchair-bound. He was later sentenced to 7 years in prison for the scams plus 2 years for faking his death, but served all his time and got out in 2019.

Gary "Skip" Ross LaTray (DECEASED), #1105, Fbr 17, 2010
In 1989, he stole 2.9 Megadollars in a bank robbery spree in upstate New York. He flaunted his cash in an awkward fashion, such as by throwing $100 bills out the window of a speeding car. In 2007, he was reintegrated into the community, working as a janitor, and mentoring youth. Then, as he claimed he fell on alcoholism and gambling addiction, he betrayed everyone who trusted him by relapsing in 2009, pulling off another series of bank robberies and even robbing his own niece. He kept it going until an amw.com visitor busted him in the town of Sago, West Virginia, at another family's home. His niece never wanted to speak to him again, and a lot of people he knew are forever disappointed in him. To this day, no-one is certain on why he went back to his criminal ways. By 2015, he was convicted, and was sentenced to 36 years in New York for a series of shoe store robberies, 3 years in Ohio for a robbery there, and 8 years in a federal prison on those last bank robbery charges. With a projected release date in circa 2057, he died in prison in December 2021.

Gabriel Christian Morris, #1106, Fbr 22, 2010
In February 2010, he shot his mother and her boyfriend to death in western Oregon, then took his wife and 4 year old daughter on the run across the southwestern US. Within the month, they fled east to his relative's house in Dumfries, Virginia. Morris had been behaving in a very irritating fashion since he arrived there, and the relative's friend knew something was up, did a search on his name, found his amw.com profile, and busted him. His wife was released shortly after on a Hindrance of Prosecution charge. Morris originally faced the death penalty, but was sentenced to 2 consecutive life terms.

Leslie Alberto Irias, #1107, Fbr 24, 2010
A convicted bank fraudster. In Maryland, he secured a deal to remodel a house for a man and his wheelchair-bound teenage son. Instead, after a couple months and 90 Grand in payments, all his construction crew had managed to do was dig a great big hole in their back yard, but Irias was long gone. An amw.com tipster busted him in a Nicaraguan community of Miami, Florida, where he'd allegedly been working at an air conditioning business. He was sentenced to 15 years in prison, with a projected release date in 2025 if he hasn't gotten out already.

Larry Anthony Arbuckle (DECEASED), #1108, Fbr 23, 2010
A former big rig driver. Cops believed at one point, based on a 5 year old's allegations, that Arbuckle had sexually assaulted the boy's 2 year old brother and mother, a stroke victim with the mental capacity of an 8 year old, over the course of 6 months. Also, they thought Arbuckle had shown the mother pornography and threatened her into obeying. At the time he was uploaded to amw.com at the turn of the decade 201X, he'd last been seen running off after his father told him to answer to the charges, then hitting the open road. He bragged to some of his friends in the town of Hot Springs, Arkansas that he'd been profiled on the 2-20-010 broadcast's 15 Seconds of Shame segment, and they busted him. Unfortunately, the family of victims lacked the capacity to build a solid case against Arbuckle, and his charges were dropped within about a year. He died in March 2023.

Albert James "Tee" Turner, #1109, Mrc 5, 2010
A former Texas prison guard and jealous bully. Over almost a decade, he'd abused his wife and children, acting reclusive at times and spying on his wife at others. In December 2009, she tried to leave him, and took her children away to another house in Rosenberg, Texas. On the day after Christmas 2009, he broke into the home and, in front of his children, slashed the throats of his wife Keitha Frank Turner and mother-in-law Betty Jo Frank, nearly decapitating them, and wounding Betty Jo's husband. In January 2010, he tried to fake his death by submerging his SUV in the Chattahoochee River west of Atlanta. In February 2010, he'd been living underneath an overpass on a river bank. In March 2010, as Walsh announced his addition to the US Marshal's 15 Most Wanted on Regis & Kelly, a tipster busted him walking with a cane in a Concord, North Carolina mall, just before he was slated to be profiled on AMW's 1000th episode, ironically giving him a different perspective on prison. In June 2011, Turner was condemned to death, but by March of 2019, he started contesting the case against him, citing ineffective counsel. Turner was planning to accuse several powerful political bigwigs, including the mayor, of carrying out a frame job on him because he'd apparently done something to anger them before, but his lawyers instead convinced him to argue he committed the double murder in a spur-of-the-moment rage. In May 2022, he was resentenced to life without parole.

Joseph "Hoodie" Roman, #1110, Mrc 28, 2010
For a few years, he'd worked at a McDonald's as a Bronx police detective's protege, even earning a basketball scholarship. On the other hand, he couldn't keep out of trouble, and eventually, "the streets got to him," and he was running with gangs. In March 2008, he got into a fight with a rival drug dealer and shot him to death. That summer, he was aired on the 15 Seconds of Shame, and a tipster submitted another photo of him to the hotline. In March 2010, he got a full profile, and was busted in Las Vegas, Nevada after dropping a bunch of groceries below his apartment and running from cops on foot in a failed attempt to evade them. He was convicted on a lesser charge of manslaughter and sentenced to 18 years in prison, but he appealed, striking down his first conviction and getting his sentence reduced to somewhere from 10 to 12 years. He got out on parole in 2020, which will take until 2025 to complete.

Simon Bahta Asfeha, #1111, Apl 29, 2010
An Ethiopian immigrant with no regular employment. Earlier in the month when he was busted, he killed his girlfriend and 3 year old daughter in Alexandria, Virginia, by stabbing them to death and bludgeoning them with the flat side of the blade. Within one month, he'd gone from fugitive on the run, to AMW 8-Second Commercial Break case, to Direct Result Capture when a tipster busted him in NYC. He's now in prison for life.

Roy Stephen Hyatt, #1112, May 14, 2010
In 1996, he molested 3 preteen girls he was in charge of babysitting at a Florida beach. He stored child pornography for 3/4 of a decade until the computer was found in December 2003. By the time AMW got to him, he was last seen fleeing his trial in May 2004. He was aired thrice on the 15 Seconds of Shame starting in the summer of 2008, and an amw.com visitor in Columbia, South Carolina busted him working at a local church in Myrtle Beach. He tried to give cops a fake ID, but they saw through it because he hadn't changed his appearance. Though his sentence length is unknown, he was sent to Arizona to serve his time in secret.

Phillip Edward Harrison, #1113, May 17, 2010
A New Mexico tattoo parlor owner. In September 2009, he started beating on his girlfriend, and several men confronted him. During the dispute, he got knocked over, produced a gun, and shot a doting father to death. After his 15 Seconds of Shame airing, he was busted running an identical tattoo parlor in Danville, Kentucky, even using the same name of "Pleasurable Pain" for his new establishment. He pled no contest and sentenced to 12 years in prison.

Harvis Pokey Wells, #1114, May 16, 2010
In South Carolina, he raped an 11 year old girl in 1996 and a 10 year old girl in 2006. In 2007, a pizza kitchen worker in Texas was fired and caught laundering drug money after cops found out he'd been keeping Wells hidden. He was busted in Houston, Texas and sentenced to 15 years in prison. His projected release date is in circa 2025 unless he's already gotten out.

Jurel Dionne Roberson, #1115, May 19, 2010
A South Park Family gangster. In November 2007, he fired at 3 soldiers outside a nightclub in Tucson, Arizona. His casualty toll was 1 dead, 1 wounded, 1 unharmed. He was first profiled on the 15 Seconds of Shame in April 2008, then named to GangTECC's original 12 Most Wanted a year later. After a quick mention in February 2010, a tipster led cops to nearby Mesa. Told to look out for him, a policeman conducting a routine traffic stop busted him. He's now serving 22 years in prison.

Gilberto Angel Vargas, #1116, May 20, 2010
A Spanish Cobras gang banger. During Chicago's June 2009 Puerto Rican festival, 4 men drove by his fellow gang bangers who mistook the festival goers for rival bangers and marked them for shooting. On their way out from the festival, Vargas shot one of the innocent men to death. After his 15 Seconds of Shame profile, he was busted towing 3 large rifles in a U-Haul truck, and made a pathetic attempt to look like he was fainting during his walkshot. He's now serving 5 1/2 decades in prison.

Vincent Edward Boyd, #1117, May 26, 2010
From 2000 to 2005, he brutally raped at least 3 preteen girls, even returning to the victims' families to confront them, and exchanging romantic, and at times erotic love letters in prison. He was erroneously released in July 2008. He was aired on the 15 Seconds of Shame in spring 2009 and early 2010, and a tipster led cops to a home garage in Morristown, Tennessee. He was smoking a cigarette, and when the cops approached, he ran and hid behind some trash cans before getting busted. It's possible he was sentenced to life in prison.

Paul Herman Clouston, #1118, Jne 1, 2010
A septuagenarian career criminal and winner of the Summer 2009 AMW Forum's Fugitive Face-Off. In September 1972, he killed a cop in Buena Park, California. Released on bond less than 2 decades later, he traveled to Virginia where he sexually assaulted 7 boys and 2 girls, starting in 1990. He more than likely molested many more children. In September 2005, he fled trial after telling a pastor there was no God. He was added to the US Marshal's 15 Most Wanted list in December 2006. While his 15 Seconds of Shame segment on 5-27-006 didn't yield a capture, on June's Day 2010, an amw.com tipster busted him in a Merced, California elder commune where he'd been living as a lawn mower repairman. He was busted in a very elderly gentleman like fashion: sitting in a chair and reading a newspaper. He's been sentenced to at least 6 years in prison.

Antonio Dion Gilbert, #1119, Jne 22, 2010
A South Carolina Def Row gang general on GangTECC's 12 Most Wanted list. In the spring of 2009, he convinced a 14 year old boy to assist in a robbery (Thus making Gilbert a "pedophile without the sex"), and the child's mother to assist in the getaway. That June, Gilbert and the teen robbed, beat, and stabbed a tobacco field cafe owner. The victim survived, but lost his eye and had to be given a glass prosthesis. The mother and child were arrested but Gilbert fled. After his full profile in February 2010, he was busted using the internet in a public library in Greensboro, North Carolina. He's now serving 2 decades in prison.

Lemuel Monge Marrero Jr, #1120, Jne 16, 2010
In June 2009, his family joined forces to kill a witness to a gang brawl that his partner-in-crime lost in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. Police quickly rounded up his brothers and father, but Lemuel got away. He fled to Fajardo, Puerto Rico to seek refuge with his mother, and killed 2 more people in drive-by shootings. He was aired on the 15 Seconds of Shame on 8-29-009, and a tipster busted him in a club on January 2, 2010. It took 5 1/2 months to extradite him, but it paid off. Lemuel is now serving life with no chance of parole.

Patrick J Gage, #1121, Jne 24, 2010
From 2000 to 2007, he sexually assaulted 2 preteen girls in Wisconsin. Two days after he was added to amw.com, a visitor led the Royal Canadian Mounted Police to some Outlook property in Saskatchewan, where he was busted camping. He's now serving 33 years in prison.

Bruno Salgado, #1122, Jly 8, 2010
A Mexican immigrant. In July 1982, he got in an argument with a group of immigrants from other towns, all over whose home town was better. It soon boiled over, and he shot them up. His casualty toll was 1 dead, 2 wounded. In 1992, he started dealing drugs and raised enough money to vanish into the shadows in February 1996. In a record breaker for oldest case solved by AMW, 27.9 years after the murder, an amw.com visitor busted him hiding out with his relatives in the town of Ramsey, Minnesota. He is now serving 3 decades in prison.

Brian Tamar "Cool Cat, Big O" Baker (RELEASED), #1123, Jly 13, 2010
A Portland Rolling 60's gang banger on the GangTECC's 12 Most Wanted list. He first caught law enforcement's attention when he pointed a gun at his child's mother in April 2008. Over the next 2 years, he carjacked 2 people. One of them ended in a shooting with 1 wounded and 4 unharmed. 5 months after his quick airing, he was busted in Tukwila, Washington, and started cracking jokes during his arrest. He served 7 1/2 years in prison.

Larry Burns (DECEASED), #1124, Jly 20, 2010
In May of 1986, his ex-wife had been seeking shelter from him in her mother's house in Gary, Indiana. He burst into the house, guns blazing. The mother got into a gunfight and fled when Burns' gun jammed. Then, he ran up the stairs to the bedroom and killed his ex-wife with 2 shots to the head. He'd last been seen walking out of the house with one shoe on and his boxers exposed. Starting in 1993, AMW aired him about a dozen times. 24 years later, an amw.com tipster busted him on July 20, 2010, his alias' 57th birthday, in Long Beach, California, where he'd made a living by breeding rottweilers and repairing pool tables under the name Daniel Oakes. He was convicted and sentenced to 7 decades in prison, but gain time laws brought the minimum down to 12.4 years. By the time he would've been up for parole in December 2022, he was already dead, just like the victim's mother had been wishing before his capture.

Kenneth Lee Baker, #1125, Ags 3, 2010
A 360-pound blob who made his living by buying and selling trucks. In May 2010, he flew into a jealous rage after his wife accidentally sent him a text message meant for someone else. He shot and killed his wife and stepdaughter. Over the next 2 1/2 months, he couldn't handle the blood on his hands and on top of everything he'd lost, his Mazda was impounded. After his airing on July 31 (Wizard's Night) 2010, a tipster at a park in Shreveport, Louisiana saw him on a bench complaining to himself, saying, "I've messed up my life!" Then he matched the stickers on a black truck parked nearby, and busted Baker on his 39th birthday. He was later sentenced to 4 life terms.

Dean George Birdsall, #1126, Ags 24, 2010
In the middle of 2010, he was Ohio's most wanted sex offender. His original offence was sodomizing a 4 year old girl in 1992, and his latest was violating the Adam Walsh Act. Police described him as particularly horrible; Even for a Tier III sex offender, they thought him scary. In fact, the rest of his family wanted nothing to do with him. An amw.com visitor led cops to Rochester, New York's Powder Mill Park where Birdsall was riding a bicycle and put him back in the cage. He was originally sentenced to between 7 years and 1/4 century, but he may have gotten out after serving 11 years.

Fairly Earls, #1127, Ags 26, 2010
In 1986, he raped 2 girls. In August of 1997, he was celebrating his 44th birthday in Wisconsin, just a week before Labor Day. He fondled a 6 year old girl and was imprisoned. He appealed his conviction, then fled his trial in March 2005. Aired thrice on the 15 Seconds of Shame, one of them on the August 2006 Criminals in the Classroom special, an amw.com visitor busted him in the town of Boquete, Panama. He's now serving 6 decades in prison.

Billy Twayne Gibson, #1128, Spt 3, 2010
A serial sex offender with a mile-long rap sheet. He was bad enough to be designated a "Sexually violent predator", reserved for only the worst, most active serial rapists. In the summer of 2010, he'd served time for pimping out 3 women and raping 2 girls. Once he was released from a halfway house in late August 2010, he was sought for violating his release terms. One week later, an amw.com visitor busted him in Miami Springs, Florida, giving a fake name in a La Quinta Inn. He was sentenced to 13 years in prison, and may or may not have gotten out by now.

Juan Carlos "Psycho" Duran and Dionne Garcia, #1129/#1130, Oct 5, 2010
A couple from Chicago's Ambrose Street Gang, sought for manufacturing the drug PCP (Phencyclidine). In February 2001, they evaded the Chicago PD's Operation Blue Water, and they were ordered to appear in court that December. Instead, the couple took their 4 children on the run. After 3 airings on the 15 Seconds of Shame, an amw.com visitor busted them in Tijuana, Mexico. Duran was sentenced to a maximum of 1/4 century in prison with a projected release date in 2032, and Garcia got 16 years with a projected release in 2025.

Rashad "Juicy" Elay Glenn, #1131, Oct 8, 2010
An 18 year old Fort Worth drug gangster. In August 2010, he fired a rifle into a car and killed 2 people. He never left Forth Worth, and when he was profiled as the 8-Second Commercial Break fugitive for 10-02-010, a tipster led right back to Fort Worth where he'd tried retaliating against crime witnesses. As he saw himself on the show, he surrendered and is now serving life in prison without parole.

Alvin Eugene Webster, #1132, Oct 13, 2010
In December 2006, he molested a toddler in Oklahoma. He was released a few months later, and his post-release follow-up was a disaster. In the spring of 2008, he was caught with another toddler and violated the Adam Walsh Act. Aired as the 8-second commercial break case for 9-25-010, a tipster busted him walking out of a hospital with several young girls. He's now serving 1/4 century in prison.

Charles Hoffman, #1133, Nvb 1, 2010
A convicted burglar and thief with no relation to Charles Anthony Hoffman (Capture #121). In September 2010, he played a card game with a woman he'd never met in a back alley in Pennsylvania. Afterwards, he beat and raped her in extremely brutal fashion, leaving blood spatters and a pair of broken glasses behind at the scene. Law enforcement expressed extreme disgust with this case, and wanted badly to have the perpetrator out of society. By Halloween 2010, he was scheduled to be aired as the 8 Second Commercial Break case for the 11-06-010 broadcast. Hoffman found out, and to spare his family any embarrassment from seeing their relative on America's Most Wanted, he called his mother to come over from Michigan and help him surrender in Harrisburg.

David Kevin "Crazy Dave" Jones, #1134, Oct 23, 2010
In the summer of 2008, he lured a 10 year old West Palm Beach, Florida girl to his trailer and raped her at least 10 times. He had several guns and knives on display to scare her into keeping it a secret, but it didn't work. The girl came forward anyway, and he was charged with capital sexual battery. He was profiled on the 15 Seconds of Shame in August 2009. One year later, he found God, saw himself on amw.com, and turned himself in in NYC, though it took an extra week and a half to take credit for the capture. He's now serving 35 years in prison.

Oscar Ancrum, #1135, Nvb 10, 2010
A NYC subprime mortgage scam kingpin. His MO was to go to halfway houses, recruit rehabilitees, instruct them on straw-buying high-end real estate, give out fake appraisals, and use them to take equities. 10 Megadollars were stolen, and hundreds of families were left penniless and/or homeless. An amw.com visitor led cops to The Bronx's Fordham University, where he was renting a room. He tried to drive away, but couldn't escape the FBI's blockade.

Arthur "Red Rider" Lopez Jr, #1136, Nvb 15, 2010
A member of a family-owned coke and meth gang in Wisconsin. In August 1999, he accompanied his fellow gang bangers as they carried out hits on 3 people. One of the victims was a rehabilitated former Latin Kings gangster. He was first aired on the 15 Seconds of Shame in November 2005, after which he taunted cops, by saying something along the lines of "Come and get me. I'm waiting." After about 3 such airings, an amw.com visitor busted him working as a telemarketer in Monterrey, Mexico. In exchange for a plea deal that got the murder charges dropped, he ratted out his family business gang. However, he did get 4 decades in prison on drug trafficking charges.

Harold Martin Smith (DECEASED), #1137, Dcb 1, 2010
The Unknown Ronni Chasen Killer. In mid-November 2010, as Hollywood publicist Ronni Chasen drove away from an afterparty following a screening of the film Burlesque, an unknown assailant rode up to her on his bicycle, hoping to rob her, but instead shot her, causing her to crash her car and die. Starting on the 11-20-010 broadcast, AMW aired the case twice as a Breaking News Alert. On December's Day 2010, AMW tipsters led Beverly Hills law enforcement to an apartment, but their suspect, Harold Martin Smith, shot himself dead before they could arrest him. 40 days later, the final ballistic test results were in, and Smith was confirmed as the killer. The tipster called AMW again to say that she called to get justice for Ronni.

Kandice M Leonard (RELEASED) #1138, Jnr 4, 2011
A drug addict. In December 2007, she abducted her daughter from Pennsylvania. In circa 2009, the girl was recovered, but Leonard was long gone. During her 3 years on the run, she robbed 23 stores and violated parole following a burglary charge. In 2010, she landed a job as a restaurant cook in Hollywood, Florida, only for amw.com tipsters to bust her just days before she would've been promoted to manager. Her sentence for the above crimes is unknown, but in 2015 she was later convicted of her role in a drug smuggling ring with 21 other suspects for which she served 3 years in prison. Due to her drug problems, it's uncertain whether she can stay out of trouble from here on out.

An Soon Kim (RELEASED), #1139, Jnr 7, 2011
The first mass sex slave trafficker in AMW's capture roster. (Note: Kelly "Sunshine" Loyd, Capture #58, was only a slave brothel master) She trafficked young women and girls from Korea to brothels and massage parlors across the East Coast. The girls were forced to service more than 70 men a weekend. On the 11-25-006 broadcast, Daryl Hannah went on a mission to end sex slavery, naming Soon-Kim one of her top 3 cases. After a brief mention on the 11-20-010 Human Sex Slavery in America special, a tipster busted her in the Mohegan Sun Casino in Connecticut where she was holding 17 Grand in cash. She was sentenced to about 3 1/2 years in prison, and was deported to South Korea in 2014 after serving her sentence.

Bob Michael Lucein Davis, #1140, Jnr 10, 2011
A wayward man with a history of gaining his past friends' trust, crashing at their houses, and stealing and selling XBOX 360 games. In September 2009, he called in a delivery from a Chinese takeout service. Instead, he bashed the delivery man in the back of the head, causing moderate injuries, and stole $200. He had tried in vain to recruit a child to assist in the robbery plot, for which he was charged with soliciting a minor to assist in a violent crime (This makes Lucein-Davis a "pedophile without the sex"). In the winter of 2011, he found his amw.com profile, and it scared him straight. He walked into a police station in Freeport, New York, and surrendered.

Loren Clayton Oulman (DECEASED), #1141, Jnr 24, 2011
A convicted sex offender. One day, he viewed child pornography publicly in a Minneapolis, Minnesota coffee shop. Law enforcement called him up, but he tried to claim he didn't know he was doing anything wrong. He was charged with 10 counts of storage of child pornography. As he fled his trial, he taunted an officer with a text message, and set about trying to publish a book claiming that law enforcement was persecuting him unfairly. Aired on the 11-13-010 Cambodia Child Predator Crackdown special, he was busted in Sihanoukville, Cambodia, and agents found a long-since revoked passport on his person. He was originally sentenced to 11 years in prison, and it's unknown how much of it he served, but he died in April 2015.

Jack Allen Poteat (DECEASED), #1142, Jnr 25, 2011
In March 1999, he raped a 14 year old girl in North Carolina. He bribed the girl with tobacco in a failed attempt to keep it a secret. He was due to appear at trial in March 2000, but instead, he stole the identity of a relative's friend and took off. The innocent man had to register as a sex offender, putting him out of work as a police officer. A dozen winters after the rape, AMW finally aired the case, and viewers were outraged. AMW tips quickly led to Rockwall, Texas, and as police closed in on his truck, he led them on a high-speed chase, only to crash. He was rescued from the wreckage, put in body braces, and arraigned. He was sentenced to 4.4 years in prison, and got out about 1/2 year early. However, he died in August 2018, permanently nullifying the danger he will ever strike again.

Jose DeLeon Alberto "Chino" Cazares, #1143, Jnr 24, 2011
John Walsh's 2008 50/50 Fugitive #MO2. In July 2006, a man in Joplin, Missouri accused him and his brother of stealing the man's tire rims. The argument boiled over, and Cazares killed his accuser with a gunshot to the head. The brother was arrested but Jose ran off. Though his 8-second commercial break airing on the 1-03-009 broadcast didn't yield an immediate capture, AMW tipsters led cops to Brownsville, Texas, where he ran and cowered in a bathroom before they busted him. In February 2015, he was sentenced to 22 years in prison.

Bryan Richard Swiney (RELEASED), #1144, Fbr 28, 2011
John Walsh's 2011 50/50 Fugitive #MO1. In July 2007, this 7 time convicted felon orally raped his girlfriend's 16 year old sister. He was released on parole within the next 3 years, but violated it by stealing a car. He drove that car on a police chase, and fired at the officer, but missed. After he was aired on the Winter 2011 50/50 show, a tip led to Charlotte, North Carolina where he was causing disturbances in a fit of rage over his bar tab. He was sentenced to 6 years in prison, a very light sentence, after accepting a plea bargain.

Ricky Alan Howard (ACQUITTED), #1145, Mrc 7, 2011
A career criminal. In December 1999, a sleeping 12 year old girl in Wisconsin was violently raped by a drunken mobile home burglar. Ricky Alan Howard was named a suspect, and aired on the 15 Seconds of Shame on 6-20-009. An amw.com viewer led cops to the town of Seguin, Texas. As cops surrounded him, he gave 2 fake names before surrendering peacefully. For numerous reasons, including that he lacked the athletic prowess to climb through the window as the crime scene investigation described, he was acquitted.

Abraham Jackson Mpaka, #1146, Mrc 12, 2011
The only one of John Walsh's Top Ten Fugitives of 2009 to be busted as a Direct Capture. This smooth-talking African conman got involved with a woman named Coty Paul after he was promptly fired from a job at the FBI for his attitude. He promised to repay her throughout 2008, but had to keep delaying the reimbursement after his book about the Nigerian 419 scams failed to sell. In December 2008, he robbed a bank of $3500, threatening them with a hand grenade. He claimed he needed it for his mother's funeral in Africa, but no-one knows for sure what he intended to do with the money. After Coty Paul bonded him out, he went to her apartment on the day after Christmas and stabbed her to death in front of her children. An amw.com tipster busted him less than a day before his scheduled 4th airing, in a Minnesota public library's computer station. He was soon found incompetent to stand trial, but that trial began in June 2023, where he decided to represent himself. He was convicted less than a week later, after arguing the FBI used voice alteration technology to set up his confession.

Richard "Li'l Stompper" Sam, #1147, Mrc 31, 2011
An Asian gang banger on the GangTECC's 12 Most Wanted list. Before he was 20 years old, his life was described as a long, full criminal career. In September 2008, he shot and wounded a person in Lowell, Massachusetts, and it's a mystery what angered the gang banger. He was introduced on AMW in August 2010, and 4 months later he was named John Walsh's #10 most wanted fugitive of 2010. After one more airing in late March 2011, he was busted on a Kennett Square, Pennsylvania mushroom farm. During his walk shot, he flashed gang signs in one last-ditch attempt to keep his tough image. He most likely served 7 years in prison, but in August 2018, agencies in Lowell launched an operation to crack down on the One Family Clique, and by June 2021, 15 members, including Li'l Stompper, were facing indictments for drug trafficking, postal service offences, and money laundering.

Lonnie Ray Correll, #1148, Apl 4, 2011
By 2008, he was unemployed and had been evicted from his home. He gained the trust of an Oklahoma couple, and was offered a job watching over their many children. Instead, he repeatedly raped one of the girls. On the 4-02-011 broadcast, he saw himself on the BOLO mini-segment. Within 2 days, he hid out in the desert and called in a surrender in the Las Vegas suburb of Henderson, Nevada.

Rene "Napoleon" Lopez, #1149, Mrc 16, 2011
In February 2009, he started demanding his paycheck from his boss in a Texas body shop. The argument quickly escalated, and Lopez shot and terminally wounded his boss. Law enforcement, body shop personnel, and of course his family, were hoping he'd recover eventually, but in April 2010, the victim died of a bullet-related infection. It was then that the charges were raised to capital murder. In March 2011, an amw.com tipster recognized him working at another body shop in San Antonio, Texas after matching the online composite sketch to him, and busted him. Alas, it would take almost 4 weeks before AMW would take credit for his capture.

DeAndre Kelly, #1150, May 2, 2011
A drug dealer who escaped a Washington, DC prison by beating up 2 prison guards in February 2011. Within the next 2 1/2 months, he hitched a ride to Bedford, Virginia, got 2 airings on the BOLO segment, then got busted in an apartment. He's now serving 15 years in prison, with a projected release date in 2026 if he hasn't gotten out already.

Jonathan LaBrada, #1151, May 6, 2011
In March 2010, he was in one of his favorite watering holes in Miami, Florida. He seemed to have an axe to grind, as he muttered, "Someone's gonna die tonight". Before long, he got into a drunken argument with a bouncer, in which he shot the security guard to death. He was first aired as the 8-second commercial break case for the 12-18-010 broadcast, then an amw.com tipster busted him in a run-down apartment in Matamoros, Mexico. He pled guilty to 2nd degree murder, was sentenced to 10 to 13 years in prison, and is due to get out in 2024.

Robert Steven Jackson, #1152, May 20, 2011
A Las Vegas hybrid gang banger on both the GangTECC's 12 Most Wanted and US Marshals' 15 Most Wanted lists. In August 2007, he fired 5 shots into the Vegas strip, hid the gun in a planter, and ran off. 4 people were wounded. In fact, the victim who was farthest away from the gunfire suffered the worst injuries during her bachelorette party. She couldn't walk for a long time, and had to be wheeled down the aisle. He was first profiled on the 15 Seconds of Shame in the summer of 2009, then given a full airing in January 2010. It took a total of 5-7 airings before he was busted in Chicago, Illinois with dreadlocks, a goatee, and an assumed identity. In September 2013, he was released on house arrest with an ankle monitoring bracelet, and justice had been delayed for almost one more year, but in August 2014, he was finally convicted. In February 2015, he was sentenced to between 3 decades and 3/4 century in prison.

Johnnie Gerard "Roy" Brown, #1153, May 24, 2011
Up to 2001, he raped many of his female relatives. By the time he was convicted in absentia in 2002, he was conservatively estimated to have 5 victims. He was also a drug trafficker, and stooped to the low of convincing underage boys to help him move drugs. It took almost a decade to bring the case to AMW, and a month after his airing, he was busted in Hazelwood, Missouri, where police feared he'd raped even more underage girls. A court in Washington convicted him of sex crimes, but his sentence is unknown.

Kenneth Andrew Craig, #1154, Jne 21, 2011
John Walsh's 2011 50/50 Fugitive #FL1. From 1991 to 2011, he'd lured, sexually assaulted, and videotaped countless teenage boys. His primary MO was to lure and bribe these children with pizza, alcohol, and video games. The lead detective on the case gave the victim count a minimum of 200. Many of the photos and videos were sent into the child porn trade in the southeastern US. Just after the last AMW on Fox broadcast of Season 24, he surrendered to authorities in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil. He's now serving 1/4 century in prison for sexually assaulting his last 2 victims.

Trumell Dymone "CO-Jack" Turner, #1155, Jne 24, 2011
A Detroit drug dealer named John Walsh's 2011 50/50 Fugitive #MI1. In May 2010, he baselessly accused two innocent teenagers of stealing his girlfriend's car during one of their younger brother's graduation weekend. Try as they might to avoid Trumell, he followed them down and shot them to death in the middle of the street before driving off. A few hours later, the car was found scrapped in an alley. One victim's mother, a cancer patient, braved the frozen weather and rough neighborhoods to pass around wanted posters. Despite fleeing to Texas at one point, he returned to Detroit a year after the murders and was busted inside a house within a few miles of the murder scene. He's now serving between 3 and 6 decades.

Nicky Allen Wilson (RELEASED), #1156, Ags 2, 2011
John Walsh's 2008 50/50 Fugitive #SC. In August 2006, he was loitering in his GMC Yukon, parked outside a convenience store when a police officer approached him. Nicky slammed on the gas pedal, dragging the policeman across the highway by the leg. All the while, the cop screamed, "It ain't worth it!" After hitting a pole, the policeman was thrown and tumbled across a tract of ground. The policeman survived, but his foot was decimated, and now only pins and wires remain where his bones were once whole. The man can no longer work as a police officer, and has struggled to put food on his family's table ever since. After 3 airings, it was Nicky's re-airing as Fugitive #SC in February of 2011 that soon led to his capture in Newport, Tennessee. He had assumed a fake ID, and was busted in a motel. He served roughly 3/4 decade in prison.

Carlos Felipe Centeno, #1157, Ags 8, 2011
An illegal alien. In August 2008, he was entrusted to watch over a 5 year old girl in Virginia. Instead, he sodomized her. The mother entered the room in the middle of it, and afterward, he told her it was just a generic misunderstanding. No new photos had been taken of him since the late 1990's, but what law enforcement had was all an amw.com visitor needed. Despite assuming a fake name, Centeno was busted driving in a neighborhood in Houston, Texas.

Romaro Taylor, #1158, Spt 29, 2011
A convicted carjacker. Once, three youth mocked him, and he opened fire out of irritation, but missed. In December 2010, he was in the Phoenix suburb of Chicago when he saw his last girlfriend drive her car at another car containing his children and their mother. Thinking the girlfriend was trying to kill his children, he flew into a rage and opened fire. The girlfriend (not the mother of his children) was wounded, but everyone else got away unharmed. An amw.com visitor busted him hiding out with his family in Robbins, Illinois without incident. He's now serving 36 years in prison.

Richard Carl Heeringa, #1159, Oct 29, 2011
A US Marshal's 15 Most Wanted career sexual predator. After spending more than a decade in prison for molesting 2 girls, he went right back to his old ways the instant he was released, setting his sights on a girl in Colorado who was recovering from a medical ailment. 3 months after the Marshals added him to their 15 Most Wanted list, an AMW tipster busted him in Detroit, where he'd been living since a year before. Faced with a 17 count indictment plus rumors of more pending charges, he laughed as the judge sentenced him to more than 1/2 millennium in prison.

Carl Jimmy Jr, #1160, Nvb 1, 2011
John Walsh's 2011 50/50 Fugitive #AK2. In 1983, he killed a man in an argument and served 2 decades in prison for it. In 2005, he fondled a woman and was ordered to register as a sex offender in January 2011, but absconded. He was busted at a hotel in Anchorage, Alaska.

William Philip Rohman, #1161, Nvb 9, 2011
John Walsh's 2011 50/50 Fugitive #MO2. In May 1997, he accosted a man born in circa 1918, robbed him at gunpoint, and had last been seen bonding out and skipping out on his court date. Two weeks after his quick airing on the 2-hour FOX special, he flagged down a policeman in Lafayette Park in Washington, DC, identified himself as a fugitive wanted by law enforcement and profiled on America's Most Wanted, and surrendered.

Kyle Butler (RELEASED), #1162, Nvb 11, 2011
John Walsh's 2011 50/50 Fugitive #NY2. This career criminal and serial robber started his history with the law in 1989. In September 2010, he robbed a bank in Rochester, New York, and was sought for questioning in more robberies in nearby cities. Two weeks after his quick airing, AMW tips led back to Rochester, and he was busted working and living in a Men's Salvation Army shelter. He served between 3 and 7 years in prison.

James Willis Brown, #1163, Nvb 14, 2011
A career criminal whose record started in 1981. In April 1999, a Texas court convicted him of child rape. He was released to get his affairs in order, but fled and was sentenced to life in prison in absentia. In August 2008, he was uploaded to amw.com, but it would take another 3 1/4 years before a viewer would bust him in Cassville, Missouri. By then, he was subsisting on an oxygen tank, tired of running.

Ramon "The Human Fly" Virola, #1164, Nvb 16, 2011
A career criminal named John Walsh's 2011 50/50 Fugitive #RI. In August 2004, five men invaded a home in Rhode Island in a botched robbery, and a gun was fired, killing a man. Police quickly rounded up the other 4 robbers but Virola, who supplied the gun used in the robbery, got away. After two quick airings on either 2011 50/50 show, a woman in Glendale, Arizona who turned out to be his child's mother called the hotline, telling them she was living in fear of him as their relationship crumbled. Police staked out an address and pounced on him. He was sentenced to 2 life terms plus 2 decades in prison.

Dwayne "Money" Pinestraw, #1165, Dcb 19, 2011
By July 2011, Pinestraw was deep in a feud over stolen cash in Pensacola, Florida. He went up to one apartment door, and as a 22 month old boy approached the interior side of the door, Pinestraw opened fire, killing the baby and incidentally wounding the culprit. By that autumn, he'd settled into a hideout in Mesquite, Texas where he was busted following a tip from the 12-17-011 FOX special. He was soon convicted and sent to lifer's row.

Michael Randolph Fritz, #1166, Jnr 5, 2012
A local street sweeping laborer. In June 2008, he raped a 13 year old girl in Washington State. The victim was the daughter of one of his friends. Uploaded to amw.com that summer, he was busted 3 1/2 years later in Bakersfield, California. The US Marshals apprehended him without incident.

Antonio Ramell "Squirt" Barnes and Earl Timothy "E" Jackson, #1167/#1168, Jnr 14, 2012
The first Direct Captures busted following an airing on Lifetime. In October 2009, these two believed some rivals in a Washington DC drug neighborhood stole their weapons and cash. After failing to retrieve it, they opened fire on a crowd just outside a high school. One man and an innocent 15 year old boy were killed, and 5 people were wounded. The best clue given during their All-Points Bulletin airing was each other: These two were always traveling together, and someone in Charlotte, North Carolina sent the tip in on Friday the 13th of January 2012. The next day, they were busted in a house they'd lived in for a month under a heavily armed search warrant. Ramell-Barnes was convicted and sentenced to 1/4 century, which was eventually reduced to 13 years in prison with 1/2 decade probation. A judge rejected Jackson's guilty plea and sentenced him to 47 years in prison.

Reginald Denmark Boston, #1169, Jnr 23, 2012
In May 2010, he got into a bar fight in downtown Milwaukee, Wisconsin with 4 men. After the night was over, Denmark-Boston found the 4 men and fired into the car. His casualty toll was 1 dead, 2 wounded, 1 unharmed. Two weeks after his short airing, he enlisted a priest's help to surrender in the town of Richmond, Indiana.

Larene Eleanor Austin, #1170, Jnr 25, 2012
At first, she claimed that a woman named LaNell Barsock, a nursing student, was her best friend since grade school. The truth was they were former lesbian lovers who'd only known each other for a matter of months. Austin, a bus driver, would often visit nearby cities under Barsock's identity. After their romance ended, she shot Barsock execution style, tried to clean up the scene, burst into a police station fronting as a star witness, and claimed Barsock's boyfriend, a Caribbean national, had killed her. Surveillance tapes proved the Caribbean man innocent, and Austin failed the polygraph test miserably. In late January 2012, she was busted in Punta Gorda, Belize and promptly deported. She would've been there to stay without AMW. It was among the most twisted homicides ever solved by AMW on Lifetime. In August 2015, Larene was convicted and sentenced to 2 consecutive terms of 1/4 century to life each.

Otis Vernell Holland, #1171, Jnr 25, 2012
A phony Nevada pastor. Several teenage girls and young women were suffering from problems like sexual appetite that the church forbade, family drama, and melancholy, and went to him for counseling. In the guise of working out these bad feelings, he raped and sexually videotaped them. Then he embezzled from his church in order to buy a limousine, stock it with sex toys, buy and renovate a mansion, and record some of the sex tapes in these high-end properties. In July 2011, he knew law enforcement was on to him and fled south. 1/2 year later, Lifetime gave the case a full profile, and he was busted in a local church in downtown Tijuana, Mexico. He was penniless and had little more than the clothing on his back. In January 2016, he was convicted on all 17 charges of sexually abusing underage girls, and faced a life sentence. By March 2016, more sexual assault charges were piled on, which makes his case far worse than anyone knew when the tipster busted him.

Esteban Rudolpho Ramos-Cruz, #1172, Jnr 27, 2012
A Buffalo, New York Seventh Street gang banger. After someone in the rival gang, 10th Street, killed one of Ramos-Cruz's fellow gang bangers, he shot one of the 10th street gang bangers dead in a retaliation hit. In May 2011, he fled charges related to racketeering, drug conspiracies, and gang territory. After a BOLO airing on Lifetime, he was busted without incident in Springfield, Massachusetts. In May 2016, he was sentenced to 3 decades in prison.

Jeanifer Lee Segrest, #1173, Fbr 7, 2012
A convicted felony thief. Starting in 2004, she received 50 Grand from a phony tutor in Georgia to let two men molest her daughters, aged about 8 years old. In August 2008, officers seeking out pimps rescued the two girls, and during their therapy, they described what Cesar Moran and the other rapist had done to them. Cops quickly caught the other rapist and the woman who funded the sexual assaults, locked them up, and threw away the key. In December 2011, AMW introduced the case on Lifetime, asking tipsters to look for Segrest and Cesar Moran. Under 2 months later, tipsters busted Segrest in a house in Port Wentworth, Georgia in front of her two young sons. She gave cops a fake ID and a pathetic excuse, but couldn't put one over on the arresting officers. Segrest is now serving 2 decades in prison, but Cesar Moran, the last of the four in the rape conspiracy, is still out there.

Michael H Mack, #1174, Fbr 13, 2012
A fast food worker and carpenter. In circa 2006, he moved into a woman's house in Wisconsin with her 3 or 4 children. He was providing some resources for the family and setting himself up as a man the children could look up to. That was until the winter of 2009, when his half-brother, a homeless child molester, moved in, and she asked him to kick the pedophile out for her children's sake. In March 2009, she went to the hospital for a sickness, and Mack got drunk, went to the hospital, and punched her in the face. Then he returned to the house, directed all the children to the car, and blew the house to smithereens, though luckily there were no casualties. He was busted at the Livestock Rodeo Festival in San Angelo, Texas following his airing on Lifetime's 1-27-012 broadcast. During a jailhouse interview, he expressed remorse for the family, said he wished he could take back making them homeless, and promised to build them furniture after his release. All we can do is hope he meant it sincerely. He's since been sentenced to about 15 years in prison.

Wisdom Jeffery, #1175, Fbr 17, 2012
A former gopher for popular music artist Keyshia Cole. In 2008, the 35+ year old Jeffery met a 19 year old girl at a Georgia carwash and started a relationship with her, but it was tumultuous all throughout. In December 2009, she gave birth to a girl, but towards the middle of 2010, the marriage had gotten so bad that she kicked him out of the house. In August 2010, while their daughter was away with her aunts, Jeffery violated a restraining order, broke into her house, and killed her with a shotgun as she was on the line with a 911 operator. He was introduced on AMW in April 2011, and was profiled again in January 2012. One month after the second airing, he was busted living as a house hermit in Cleveland, Ohio. He moronically pled not guilty, then was quickly convicted and sentenced to life without parole.

Rufus "G-Money" Byers, #1176, Fbr 29, 2012
A mass human sex slave trafficker. His MO was orchestrating the kidnapping of his victims' young children and holding them hostage to make the women turn tricks. One victim spoke out about her ordeal, which lasted from July 2011 until her rescue that December. In February 2012, AMW aired a special broadcast about the fight against human sex slavery. Tipsters quickly busted Rufus in Addison, Texas. The victim who spoke out on the show was waiting for him, and after his extradition flight, she yelled at him, and he just walked by in a defeated fashion. He was convicted and sentenced to 3/4 decade, and may or may not have gotten out by now.

Elizabeth Kay Gade (RELEASED), #1177, Mrc 2, 2012
In July 2010, an 18 year old girl in North Carolina had gotten into a falling-out with her family that led to her estrangement. A human sex slave trafficker named Justin Michael Grills contacted the girl and invited her to stay at his house in New Mexico. After she moved there, he and fellow sex slave trafficker Gade trapped the girl in a house with elaborate security. His biggest mistake was forcing the girl to change her outfit and make-up, inadvertently letting the girl onto them as Gade prepared the girl's online profile. The girl now knew she had to escape. Before long, Grills had forgotten to activate one of the alarm systems, and that's when the girl ran off and went to police. Grills was quickly caught and sentenced to 4 years in prison, but Gade, also sought for questioning in several other sex slavery rings in Minnesota, fled. Following Lifetime's February 2012 special on the fight against sex slavery, Gade was busted in Wyoming. Despite a paltry 4 year sentence, the New Mexico judge called it a victory in the fight against sex slave trafficking.

Fritz Alisme, #1178, Mrc 7, 2012
In Broward County, Florida, he sexually assaulted his own 12 daughter at least 10 times. He was soon arrested but fled by severing his ankle monitoring bracelet. In the winter of 2012, Lifetime aired a broadcast that included a ride-along with Abby Tiger's crew. Tiger named Alisme and Isaac Coran Amos her two most wanted fugitives. Within a month, Alisme was busted in Miami, Florida, where he'd been working a regular job. During his walkshot, his work uniform was seen hanging on the back wall. He was convicted and sent to lifer's row.

Rasshammach Roberts, #1179, Apl 9, 2012
On Labor Day 2011, in West Virginia, he got into a jealous argument with two brothers over a young woman who happened to be their cousin. A few hours later, he shot at the brothers, killing the older one and wounding the younger. In an eerie coincidence, the brothers' grandfather was murdered in the Bahamas, and AMW caught the grandpa's killer, Philip White, as capture #204. In exchange for an unknown lighter sentence, he agreed to testify against a co-defendant, the possible triggerman.

Errol and Tonya Victor, #1180/#1181, Apl 14, 2012
A fugitive couple from St. John the Baptist's Parish, Louisiana. Starting in 2004, their collective 13 sons were imprisoned in a house of horrors, where Tonya's sons were starved, beaten, and forced to work nearly all hours of the day renovating the mansion. Tonya's sons were often punished by being forced to run laps around the property holding cinderblocks. Errol kept them away from school and brainwashed them into worshiping him as God. On April's Eve 2008, an ice cream sandwich went missing. Hoping to spare the other 12 men and boys any pain, Tonya's 8 year old son, ML Lloyd III, admitted to it. Errol grabbed a belt, tied him down, and whipped him repeatedly while Tonya stood by and did nothing to stop him. They took Lloyd to a hospital where he soon died from his wounds. In August 2011, they appeared on local news proclaiming their innocence before fleeing their trial. After Lifetime's Couples on the Run special on 4-13-012, the Victors called the hotline to complain about their portrayal, after which a tipster busted them in Tifton, Georgia. Errol had been doing handiwork and trying to start his own church, while Tonya wore a scarf and could barely speak anymore. Despite fears that the case against them would fall apart, they were convicted in July 2014. In September, Errol was sentenced to life without parole, and Tonya got 21 years. In 2020, a Supreme Court ruling struck down all criminal convictions that weren't unanimous, including Errol's and Tonya's 10 to 2 conviction, which had previously been allowed in Louisiana. While he was out before his retrial, Errol continued his life of cons by announcing in January 2021 that he was running for Congress, where he got next to no votes, if any. In July 2022, Errol was convicted again, and that September, he once again got sentenced to life.

Quan Lam, #1182, Apl 29, 2012
A Vietnam War refugee turned Golf Coast fisherman. In 1987, he robbed a home, bound a couple, and raped the woman. In 2006, he fled a Baton Rouge, Louisiana halfway house. In March 2012, he was given a BOLO airing on AMW, and in April, tips led to Biloxi, Mississippi, so the city newspaper added him to their most wanted list. Tips from the locals finished the job, busting him after a fishing excursion.

Janet M Hallahan and Nelson Grant Hallahan, #1183/#1184, May 5, 2012
The Mini Madoffs of the Midwest. Nelson Grant Hallahan was a notorious 1-Megadollar Ponzi schemer who targeted his friends, family, and elders. His MO was reading obituaries to find victims. As the Ponzi scheme started to unravel, Janet put out a tattoo parlor, and convinced people to invest in it. In one last unsavory move, they targeted Janet's terminally ill parents. They fled from US Attorneys in 1999. An AMW tipster busted them in the small Arizona town of Tonpoah, living less than a mile apart. Their captures made headline news across Illinois. During their sentencing phase, Janet tried claiming Nelson controlled her and dragged her on the run, but the judge saw through it and sentenced them both to 2 1/4 decades in prison.

Joseph William Chapman, #1185, May 20, 2012
John Walsh's 2011 50/50 Fugitive #PA2. This sexual predator started abusing young girls when he was 7 years old. By the time he was arrested and sent to prison, he had raped between 20 and 150 victims. In July 2007, he was performing an outdoor prison detail when he put down a weed thwacker, threw his prison uniform into a river, and ran off in only his boxers. It took 3 more airings, including one as the second fugitive introduced on Lifetime's 12-02-011 Season 25 kickoff, to bust him in Arkwright, New York. In January 2014, a jury couldn't find him guilty because of some questions surrounding a 5 year old boy's testimony, but Chapman was retried in September and finally convicted. In October 2014, he was sentenced to 15 to 40 years in prison, but the only way they can keep him in prison for the full term is Congress breaking free of its deadlock and renewing the Adam Walsh Act.

Luis Gonzalez, #1186, Jne 1, 2012
In August 2008, he met a young woman named Tia Poklemba at a Fort Myers, Florida bar, then started driving her home. Somehow, they got in an argument, then a physical struggle. Hoping to protect herself, she produced a switchblade and a cellphone. As she got out of the car, he ran over her, drove backward, and ran over her again, driving away without reporting to law enforcement. As his pregnant wife watched the news report, she recognized him, but he abandoned her and fled. John Walsh was afraid he was a rising serial killer, and after 3 full airings, including one on Lifetime in March 2012, he was busted in the village of El Pedernal, Mexico. He was convicted of aggravated manslaughter and sentenced to 6 decades in prison. In October 2016, he appealed his sentence. His attorneys argued that a vehicle is not a weapon, and won. This got his sentenced reduced from 60 down to 45 years, and he will not be released until September of 2050 at the soonest, when he serves 38 1/4 years.

UPDATE from site admin: AMW's original version captures 1187-1204 were oddly retroactively retracted by AMW's reboot aka AMW 2.0 on Fox in 2021. For reference purposes- we are listing them anyway from when AMW 1.0 was on the air on Fox and Lifetime:

Reanaldo Nargo, #1187-A, Jne 13, 2012
In Louisiana, he killed two men by shooting them execution style over a missing AK-47, then escaped police custody. He was last seen in January 2007, when he was asked to appear in court on new charges in Tacoma, Washington, but failed to appear. Following his All-Points Bulletin airing, a tipster knew he was still in Tacoma and called the hotline, telling them Nargo was dating the tipster's relative. Nargo was busted at his brother's house and is now serving life in prison.

Tina Barron, #1188-A, Jne 17, 2012
In late January 2012, during a power outage, she stabbed and wounded her ex-husband and his new girlfriend with a screwdriver, icepick, or other small blade, in California after a child custody dispute boiled over, then fled with her two sons. The ex-husband recovered easily, but the female victim, stabbed through the neck, was lucky to survive with an unsightly scar. 1 2/3 month after her All-Points Bulletin airing on the 4-27-012 Lifetime Bad Girls Special, a tip led cops to a backyard in Galt, California. The SWAT sent their K-9 unit in to corner her, and she smiled at the agents, somewhat glad her run was over. We are unsure of what her sentence was except she received either a short sentence and probation and/or just probation. Her latest picture showed her looking emaciated and beaten up. In December 2016, she went on the run again after another altercation where she stabbed a 3rd victim, who was wounded and survived, but was recaptured on January 10, 2017, once again in Galt.

Brian Maurice Fuller, #1189-A, Jly 1, 2012
An interior designer and failed country club tennis coach. When the club saw him as nothing special, he turned to crime, stealing and fencing jewelry and antiques in Texas. Convicted of a felony and locked away for about a decade, he gained more than a few extra pounds and continued his life of crime after his release. He posed as a drug addict's mentor and rehabilitator, then offered one addict several grand to pay for drugs if he carried out one last attack. In January 2010, the addict beat a woman, thrust her head into the pavement, and stole her jewelry, 90 Grand worth, then delivered it to Fuller before they made their getaway. The addict was arrested but Fuller fled. Everybody knew he'd be an easy grab because of his two catch phrases, "Have a blessed day" and "The universe, it talks to me". His capture was colorless considering it: He was busted in a house in Frankston, Texas, under an alias, without incident. He was sentenced to 45 years in prison due to his long criminal record.

Dean "Journey" Myrie (RELEASED), #1190-A, Jly 3, 2012
A drug trafficker and racketeer who moved at least a metric ton of marijuana. He took part in the kidnapping, torture, and dismemberment of a man, and after his quick airing on 6-29-012, he was busted in a NYC apartment building, and soon pled guilty. A jury determined that he kidnapped the man in aid of racketeering, but played no further role in the murder, and he served about 9 years in prison.

Julio Rengal Ceja, #1191-A, Jly 11, 2012
John Walsh's #6 most wanted fugitive of 2010. In late July 2008, he and his partner in crime Jose Lopez Garibay (John Walsh's #5 most wanted fugitive of 2010) picked up Ceja's then 14 year old cousin in Boonville, California, took her for a joyride, told her they were going to rape her, then drove to a forest near the edge of Mendocino County. They took turns raping her, then Ceja fled the scene. The girl kicked out the truck's window, and barely managed to run as Garibay attempted to finish her off. She spent years recovering in the hospital, but her injuries were not believed to be life threatening. In July 2011, an AMW tipster said Ceja was hiding out in Mexico, but nobody had the authority to act on the tip until July 2012, when Ceja was caught serving time in a local jurisdiction of Jalisco, Mexico. Rengal was registered as a mid to high risk sex offender, but by April 2021, Garibay was still out there.

Tobijah Nelson, #1192-A, Jly 12, 2012
A Jamaican illegal alien and drug trafficker. In late March 2009, he and his partners in crime made harassing comments towards several women outside a Fayetteville, North Carolina night club. A soldier reprimanded Nelson's party, starting an argument. Shortly after being admitted into the night club, Nelson supplied the gun that his partner in crime used to kill the soldier and wound another person. The other killers were arrested but Tobijah got away. When he was introduced in January 2011, AMW thought Tobijah Nelson was only an alias. In December 2011, an AMW tipster gave the information that was needed to bust Tobijah, but it took until July 2012 to bust him in Queens, New York. Convicted of accessorizing to the shooting, he was sentenced to nearly 7 years in prison, and may have been paroled in late 2018.

Isaac Coran Amos, #1193-A, Jly 27, 2012
Abby Tiger's most wanted fugitive as of the end of winter 2012. This convicted drug dealer and burglar was wanted for bludgeoning a woman's face with a shovel after a dispute outside a shop in Lauderhill, Florida, causing her severe motor disability. AMW tips led back to Lauderhill, where he was busted trying to run up a high-rising flight of stairs.

Sama Chaka Quinland, #1194-A, Jly 27, 2012
A men seeking men website user. In July 2011, a college student in South Carolina was seeking a man to split the cost of apartment rental with. Instead, Quinland, his stepsister, and another man shot and stabbed the college student to death, robbed the apartment, drove the car beneath an overpass, and blew it up. The other robbers were arrested but Quinland fled. 4 months after his short airing on Lifetime, he was busted in the Virgin Islands. He was sentenced to 24 to 30 years in prison.

Glen Joseph "Gulf Coast Casanova" Davis, #1195-A, Ags 6, 2012
A habitual criminal who traveled to the Bay St. Louis, in Mississippi's Gulf Coast region to do handiwork following Hurricane Katrina. He met and dated between 5 and 30 women using the Plenty of Fish online dating site. To add to his living there, he worked for a descendant of the Louisiana Purchase as a garden maintenance man, but in the winter of 2012, Davis accidentally broke a statue, refused to pay for it, and was fired. In March 2012, the man's apartment was broken into, and his body was found, fatally beaten. The elderly man's clothing, ATM card, and some other belongings were stolen and last seen on Davis. After taking his last girlfriend to a casino, he borrowed her car, and fled north, intent on never being seen again. After his airing on Lifetime, he was busted in a forest near a Grand Rapids, Michigan shopping center. He was the first to be put in some pink handcuffs given to the arresting officer as a present from her relative, which she describes as suiting him so well because he dated so many women in quick succession. In August 2015, he seemed like he was about to be acquitted until he and his defence attorney agreed to let Davis take the stand in court. Unfortunately, Davis' story was full of holes. The court convicted him and sent him to lifer's row.

Willie Henry Lorick, #1196-A, Ags 15, 2012
A high-ranking member of Palm Beach, Florida's serial Bump-N-Rob clan. Their MO was to bump into cars, then kidnap, rob, and threaten their occupants. They hit at least 32 cars starting in November 2011, but no-one was killed and no injuries were reported. In April 2012, cops rounded up the four other major players in the crime ring, but Lorick got away. After the case was aired on Lifetime in the summer of 2012, he was busted in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, with his shirt over his head.

Jonathan Jamel May, #1197-A, Spt 4, 2012
In February 2012, he and 2 other men shot at 5 people in Detroit, Michigan. A crippled couple was killed, 1 other person was wounded, and 2 were unharmed. He was busted in Monticello, Arkansas, but Detroit's police department still sought out Brian and Rakesk White. In 2014, the White brothers were captured, and May was sentenced to life in prison.

Mario Hernandez, #1198, Oct 11, 2012
In California, he killed his girlfriend's ex-boyfriend by shooting through a bathroom door, then disguised himself as his twin brother in order to flee. The twin served a short time in prison for his role as an accessory, but Hernandez was already halfway across the country. After his Lifetime airing in the latter half of 2012, he was busted after smoking a cigarette in Modesto, California. He had visited Texas and New York during his time on the run.

Zane Kiel Mason, #1199, Oct 21, 2012
A car mechanic's apprentice from Arizona's Mohave Desert by day, and crystal meth manufacturer and user by night. While he received instruction from his girlfriend's father, he abused his girlfriend. In August 2011, he got into an argument with his instructor, during which he smashed the old man's windshield and stabbed him to death. Originally, tips led cops to Florida, but he was busted in Sacramento, California. In mid-2014, he secured a plea deal and was sentenced to 16 years in prison, with a projected release date around the turn of 2028 to 2029.

John Thomas Reardon, #1200, Oct 22, 2012
A traveling North Carolina drug trafficker. He convinced his girlfriend to flee with him before running from cocaine distribution charges in April 2012. He was busted in St. Petersburg, Florida, working at a gymnasium, with his girlfriend working as a bartender. It was the only 100-multiple capture after the transplant to Lifetime.

James Duane Ambrose, #1201, Nvb 8, 2012
In May 2012, he fatally beat and stabbed his boss in an Idaho hotel and stuffed the body into a crawl space. A few weeks later, he traveled to Las Vegas where he carjacked a woman born in circa 1926, and was last seen tying up an elderly couple and robbing them. After his Lifetime profile in the latter half of 2012, he was identified as a homeless drifter and busted there in Vegas. In August 2013, he pled guilty and was sentenced to 3 decades to life in prison. After serving time in Idaho, he will be extradited to Nevada to serve a 22 years to life sentence for the carjacking and kidnapping conviction.

David Robert "DJ" Friend Jr (RELEASED), #1202, Dcb 20, 2012
A white gang banger and drug dealer who had made at least two past attempts to kill several men, all of which failed. One night, he saw a woman he'd known since several years ago at a bar. A few hours later, he imbibed an 11 year old boy with alcohol, then got into an argument where he shot and wounded a man. A few minutes later, he returned and bludgeoned the victim with a metal pipe, but it was still not enough to kill him. He was busted in Riverside County, California. He served 9 years and 2 months in prison.

Karen Lynn "KK, Harvey's Girl" King (CHARGES DROPPED), #1203, Apl 6, 2013
In March 2012, police believe she convinced her sons to try and kill their stepfather in Georgia. The young men allegedly savagely beat him, locked him in a car trunk, and ditched the car on an Alabama highway, where the stepfather was found alive. Less than 6 months after her October 2012 Lifetime profile, she was busted at her last boyfriend's home in Indian River County, Florida. She had tried to disguise herself by dying her hair yellow, but it backfired because she only stood out more. In March 2016, the charges against her and her sons were dropped because the District Attorney had too little evidence. Worse, they got cast on Love & Hip-Hop: Atlanta, and people's morbid curiosity risked driving up ratings. Our position was to urge everyone who was reading this to boycott the show however you may know how. In October 2016, she went on the run after defaulting on payments for a Maserati, and nobody knows whether she's been seen since.

Marcus S Tillman, #1204, Jne 13, 2013
In Georgia, in 2007, he sexually assaulted his two sons, aged 6 and 3. The mother went to police after the children told her an imaginary creature spread shaving cream over their genitals at Tillman's house. In February 2009, after his conviction, he fled his sentencing phase, got sentenced to 4 decades in prison in absentia, and was last seen on the surveillance camera of an ATM machine. The children's mother, in order to keep them from worrying, told the boys their father was already in prison. This could've been a terrible mistake had it not been for an AMW tipster: He was busted in downtown San Francisco, California, working for a computer technology company in a low-down position.
