Hello all, welcome to amwfans.com's forum! As mentioned elsewhere, this is a site dedicated to the discussion of fugitive-themed cases in the media. This site was originally intended as an America's Most Wanted only fan page, however due to the show's cancellation and the different ways true crime media is now consumed by Americans we have decided to turn this into a "regular" true crime forum with the focus still on fugitive cases that are profiled on tv shows, podcasts, streaming shows, YouTube channels etc... But whatever you're interested in, a list is provided below explaining the different sections, with links only if felt necessary. Please also read our forum rules and guidelines on the main page if you plan on posting. (Please note there may be a link to a "fugitive of the week" in between sections but it's just encouraging you to click on the link to check the case out and see if you can help, it doesn't count as an actual section of the forum).
UPDATE: AMW is back after all! So this forum’s main priority will be AMW again but we will also cover fugitives in any national media as well.
Section 1: General Fugitive True Crime Show/Media Show discussion : Thoughts, opinions, reviews etc. on national TV shows, streaming shows, podcasts, YouTube and/or other types of national media series that discuss fugitive cases: amwfans.com/board/8/general-fugitive-crime-media-discussion
There is also a new sub-forum in the general section for anyone looking for past episodes of America's Most Wanted or other true crime shows, as this forum originally started as a fan show for the John Walsh-hosted show that aired on Fox from 1988-2011 (Spoiler Alert: old AMW episodes are virtually impossible to obtain, and this is a "just in case" if you feel like playing the lottery): amwfans.com/board/56/true-crime-episode-segment-requests: amwfans.com/board/56/true-crime-episode-segment-requests
