Aww cmon Scumhunter Moose Lives Matter lmaooo, but let’s hope that if he were to harass squirrels, that he doesn’t go nuts lol. Sadly changing the mood of the thread, but I actually have something to share on the off topic thread (when don’t I lol). So apparently the U.S. Military is doubling down in their shadow war in Somalia. On first thought, i was thinking we could finally get the White widow and the killers of Diplomat John Granville who was murdered in 2008 in Sudan, but on the other hand, I don’t really want our soldiers to keep dying in overseas wars that have lasted for nearly 20 years. My apologies for being political, it’s just that why started as an invasion of Afghanistan in 2001, has turned into interventions in Iraq, Pakistan, Yemen, Somalia, Syria, Libya, & Niger, and I just hope we can stop the overseas wars, if we really support and care about our troops, then maybe it’s time to bring them home once and for all. news.vice.com/amp/en_ca/article/xw7nw3/somalia-is-looking-like-another-full-blown-us-warI'm a scratched vinyl album about corporate bribery and corruption, but in recent years, I've suspected the weapons-of-war manufacturers like Raytheon (and the names of about 7 others I can probably find somewhere) of artificially dragging these wars on indefinitely and all across the 3rd world as an elevator for their own profits. The military industrial complex profits from these wars and now there’s a new reason why they want to stay in Somalia, and it’s because in 2016 there was a discovery of oil off the coast of Somalia. So in a way this seems like a grab for resources and at the same time enriching the people at the top including these weapons manufacturers and contractors. Our infrastructure, School systems, and health care system suffer because of the amount being spent on these overseas wars. www.offshore-mag.com/articles/print/volume-76/issue-12/geology-geophysics/somalia-awakens-as-east-africa-s-oil-province.html

So one of the Ebay accounts I follow, JG Autographs, uploaded some fbi wanted posters for sale for the first time in several months, including cases from the 1970s-1990s. While I didn't find any new fbi fugitive cases to profile yet, if more uploads are coming in the next few days, hopefully I'll have at least one new fbi fugitive case to post about.

Just a note guys that while maybe I'll still be somewhat available, I'm getting ready to go overseas later on today and HeadMarshal will be in charge for the week. (Maybe I'll check in on occasion, as there's always pockets of time, when I get back to where I'm staying, in the morning before I go somewhere etc... to peruse the site quickly but I'll probably be limited in being able to reply to threads and stuff like that). If it was a normal weekend trip I wouldn't even announce anything or perhaps would just say I'm busy, but I didn't want anyone to get offended if I went a whole week without replying to their posts.

This has to do with America's Most Wanted's history, but I'm putting it here because of how our forum has evolved over the years, which runs into conflict with our conversations about John Walsh's annual AMW Top Ten tradition.
Based on how aggressively certain fugitives got profiled throughout AMW's history, how much harder some of these manhunts have been than others, and other factors, I've used my imagination to picture what John Walsh's Top Ten lists might've looked like before Y2K. I estimate that most cases took 3 - 6 months to brief the producers on a case, film a segment, and bring it to air, so fugitives who go on the run from October to December will typically be rounded forward to the following year. Bear in mind that we can't know exactly a fugitive was given their first profile ("introduced") on the show, especially because the Wayback Machine doesn't cover most episodes prior to the late autumn of '998, so I'm basing this on when a fugitive first committed the crime that put them on the run, last escaped from custody before the AMW episode guides from the old websites show, or got a development in the manhunt that might've reheated the manhunt and drawn AMW to it. In some of those latter cases, I'll be commenting it with 2 forward slashes (as is the custom for short comments in C++).
'999 This one might seem a little haphazard, because some of these might not have been introduced until after Y2K. Many of these went on the run in late 1998, but as aforementioned, I imagine it must've taken a while to go through the producers, film a segment, and everything. #10 and #9 on this list are fillers, unless more prominent cases can be found to replace them 10. Craig Michael Pritchert 9. Nova Esther Guthrie 8. Reinaldo De La Concepcion Silvestre, the Butcher of South Beach 7. Crystal Dawn "Goofy" Vigil 6. LaQuan Tucker Robinson 5. Hazel Leota Head 4. Boris George Graham 3. James Charles "Atomic Dog" Kopp 2. David Lee Kemp 1. Artur Martirosyan
'998 This was a much easier AMW Top Ten to visualize. One of you recently told us about how frequently some of the higher fugitives were profiled (Didn't one of you complain that they aired it weekly?) 10. Martha Ann Gomez 9. Elrick Bernard "Big E" Wynn 8. Michael Edward Akerly //Placeholder until I can find another prominent 1998 case. I'm ambiguous as to how long John Walsh has been on this manhunt. 7. Eugene Anthony "Geno" Linder 6. James Allen Kinney 5. Michael "Mitch" Barrera 4. John Patrick Addis 3. Charles Herbert "Chaka" Raysor 2. Jason Wayne McVean 1. Eric Robert Rudolph
'997 I have 9 ideas. I just need one more: James Richard Johnson Robert Darrell Davidson Guillermo DeLasma Ramirez Joel Vidales Urena Ruben Lopez Ramirez Trung Thanh Pham Randy "Mad Mark" Yager Marvin "Shy Boy" Aclaro Mercado Kevin Louis Vermette
'996 10. Scott James Brinegar 9. Delvin Terry Groat //He received several profiles, if I'm not mistaken 8. John Vincent Vu //If I remember correctly, he went on the run in late '995 7. Amy Rica DeChant 6. Phokham Keomanivong 5. Esat Bici //Initial crime happened in July of '990, escaped or otherwise fled in 1996 4. David Francis Bieber 3. Anatoliy "Tolik" Valenko 2. Peter Hommerson 1. Vernon Ray Henry
'995 10. Bertha Marie Keene //She'd been on the run for several decades, but got a divorce in 1995 in order to go on the run 9. Jamie Eugene "Six Fingers" Edwards 8. Randolph Franklin Dial //Escaped in late '994, if I remember correctly 7. Margaret Rudin 6. Eddie W "Lucky" Mathis //Went on the run in December of '994 5. Leonardo Anselmo Cisneros 4. Dudley Vincent Forbes 3. Kevin LaMont "Hawk Dawg, Little Bit" Carter 2. Jacqueline Tarsa LeBaron 1. James Joseph "Whitey" Bulger
'994 10. Shane Matthew "Magan~a" Magan 9. Timothy Thomas Coombs 8. Gloria Louise Schulze 7. Jacer Medina 6. Francisco Martinez //Not to be confused with fellow New Jersey murder suspect Francisco "El Americano Rico" Seminari Martinez 5. James Richard Bennett 4. Olivera Valentino Hernandez 3. Antonio Magana Castro 2. Francis Sepulveda //AMW Busted his partner in crime, Gabriel Cruz, as a Direct Result, but Sepulveda took 6 more years to capture 1. Lester Edward Eubanks
'993 This is based on a lot less information than '994 to '999, and my knowledge of this year in AMW crimes is vague 10. Enrique "Ki-Ke" Coropuna 9. Roberto Solis 8. Michael Lee McGuffey 7. Svetlana Vitman 6. Anthony Smith 5. Gregory Marc "Abra" Rivera 4. Howard Joseph Nodine III 3. Sarkis Peltekian 2. Javier Francisco "El Flacco" Felix Borbon 1. Tyrom Walter Theis

Hey guys still won't be back until Tuesday nightish but just wanted to say I heard about the yet another school shooting and I share my thoughts frustrations whatever. Besides the obvious debates we can have, we must also recognize the heroism and bravery of people who go through events line these, such as the teachers who lost their lives protecting their students and the school resource officer who unlike the Parkland resour officer actually did his job and went in and confronted the gunman. While I wish their bravery wasn't needed, it is inspiring and let's continue to hope against what seems like all hope for reductions in school violence.
Until next week...

Well hey no Trump just means Pence (who is only better because he is not as crazy) so I'm in not a hurry lol. I forgot to make a joke that I was at the royal wedding and that's why I went away.

Just wanted to say kudos to Crime Watch Daily. I'm not sure if its because their season finale (that is SEASON) finale is soon but they've profiled a bunch of unsolved cases including two fugitive cases the past two weeks. I had previously been annoyed that it seemed every case early on in the season was a "was it suicide/accident or really murder" case when in actuality most of those cases are actually exactly what they are said to be and they could have been focusing on actual unsolved cases. (There was a rare exception this week after a man's wife mysteriously died just recently 20 years after his first wife's "suicide that is obviously a case you can make an exception for). But their case selection in the month of May has been spot on.

Just wanted to say kudos to California voters for voting to recall Judge Aaron Persky, the same Judge who sentenced Stanford student Brock Turner to just six months in prison for sexually assaulting an unconscious woman at a party. (And this was after Turner's father appealed to the Judge that Turner should not be punished for "20 Seconds of Action). If only we can now recall those judges that keep letting the murder suspects we see on AMW, The Hunt etc... out on bond as well. www.foxnews.com/us/2018/06/06/northern-california-judge-ousted-for-stanford-sex-assault-sentence.html

I know I don't ask for much but I really would like a top ten and/or major AMW/Hunt capture next week after this bummer of a past week. (Still bummed over Anthony Bourdain- celebrity deaths are always sad but this is in my like top five alongside Chris Farley and Chris Cornell (lead singer of my favorite band Soundgarden growing up) among those that have saddened me the most).
Just this week is all I ask. Any other week is fine too but this is the only week where I especially ask lol.

Just this week is all I ask. Any other week is fine too but this is the only week where I especially ask lol. Honestly I hope we do have a major capture soon. As I’ve stated before I feel like we’d get a Pre-2015 Fugitive capture this summer and/or the fall. At this point I consider everyone and I mean EVERYONE on the Top Ten as a likely possibility of having their days numbered as fugitives. In terms of AMW/The Hunt, I would like to see guys like Jose Corona, Rudy Fernandez and many more being caught soon.

Odds of a pre-2015 top ten capture soon are pretty good based on law of averages and I agree with your optimisim/senses, just hope I dont jinx it lol.

Also odds are 6/10 for a pre 2015 and odds for a post 2015 are 4/10.
