It is rather rare to see a female drug trafficker. AMW often adds fugitives if they think a unique aspect will help find them and she certainly fits that bill.
I would be curious to know if Barrer has actually been to the Ukraine or just is involved with the drug trade there. If she has physically been there and speaks Ukranian or Russian since if she's been to the Ukraine what's not to say she'd hide out in that region (it would be a good place to hide since unfortunately there's no extradition)
Also, this is very off-topic and I apologize but anyone else notice AMW added another web-exclusive to their site yesterday?

A really dramatic "end" to this case- a woman found shot dead in her SUV in Lachine, Quebec (a suburb of Montreal) is confirmed to be Elizabeth Barrer. Police suspect the murder is related to drug trafficking, but don't know what she was doing in Montreal. This may be part of a larger picture, but who knows. This is pretty shocking to me. She was allegedly involved in a dangerous drug trade, but she was one of the last fugitives on here I thought we'd find out would die. www.cjad.com/cjad-news/2014/04/04/woman-killed-in-lachine-was-one-of-americas-most-wanted

I also wasn't really expecting Barrer to end up dead. Anyway, the Montreal area has a lot of organized crime issues, so I wouldn't be surprised as well if this was part of a larger picture.

Jeffrey Colegrove, a man with ties to Montreal's West End Gang and closely linked to Elizabeth Barrer, has been arrested, technically on drug charges. Although Barrer was a fugitive and I don't condone what she was accused of (she of course was killed before it could be proven what she was or wasn't involved with in a court of law), two wrongs also don't make a right and whoever killed her should be brought to justice. In addition, it could help towards ending drug violence in the area. Hopefully this is a step in the right direction towards solving her murder. montrealgazette.com/news/local-news/man-tied-to-west-end-gang-and-linked-to-mystery-woman-killed-last-year-has-been-arrested

Colegrave saw his 12 year prison sentence on drug charges extended last year after violating conditions of his release. Should also be noted Colegrove was apparently in prison when Barrer was killed. Still, perhaps there is some sort of connection that could help in solving Barrer's murder. montrealgazette.com/news/local-news/convicted-drug-trafficker-with-alleged-ties-to-west-end-gang-sees-sentence-extendedAlso, I found a blog from someone who said they went to high school with and dated Elizabeth Barrer that mentions crude and disparaging comments and sexual remark postings from the America's Most Wanted page comment postings. Although they do reference Facebook, since some people could get confused, I do want to stress those comments were from posters on America's Most Wanted's official Facebook postings back when the show was still on the air. Had those comments been made on our site, they would have been immediately deleted. I know this is only a case people see if you come across Google or whatever but still. It's a very interesting blog and in no way am I criticizing the author as I enjoyed reading his story (I apologize if enjoy isn't the right usage, but it kept my attention is what I'm saying). He did specifically mention Facebook. I just don't want people confusing our unofficial fan page with AMW's old FB site and thinking it was us where those remarks were posted since that mistake could theoretically happen. narrative.ly/my-ex-the-drug-queenpin/
