Carlos Saucedo was aired as a fugitive on the June 13th, 2009 episode of America's Most Wanted. He is accused of murdering a pool hall manager named Duck Kee Kim in Columbia, South Carolina.
Deputies say on the night of August 24, 2006 Saucedo was accompanied by a young female companion in Decker Billiards. Arguments ensued with other patrons and Kim decided Saucedo had to leave.
Deputies say Kim kicked Saucedo and his female companion out of the club. They say Kim and Saucedo exchanged some words, at which point deputies say Saucedo ran out to the parking lot, got in his car with his female companion, and started to drive off.
It was at this point that deputies say Saucedo pulled out a gun and shot toward the club. The bullet traveled through the wall of the club, and Kim ran to the door, closed it and tried to lock it from the inside.
That's when deputies say Saucedo fire a second shot. The bullet traveled through the door and hit Kim in the head, killing him.
Deputies believe Saucedo went to San Diego and then Mexico. However, they say he returned to Columbia a few months afterwards.
Thoughts? Saucedo did flee to Mexico initially, but soon returned to Columbia. And this is despite being a wanted fugitive. Once he saw he was on America's Most Wanted did the increased heat on Saucedo cause him to go back to Mexico? Or is he hiding in plain sight?
