A few years ago, I recall the online site for TV guide having an episode directory for AMW with short summaries of each episode. These episodes were in chronological order from 1999-2012 and the earlier episodes were scattered all over the place, but had potential information on early AMW cases. Some time ago it looks like TV guide revamped their website and only the 25th season episode guideof AMW is on their site. Nothing from any other seasons. I'm going to include the link to the current site to see if anyone can find the full episode guide that I recall them once having. www.tvguide.com/tvshows/americas-most-wanted/episodes/100031/

I wonder if those episodes were entered in manually or if they were auto-generated. It's really frustrating that no full guide exists. And AMW's website, while thorough, can be inaccurate. I saw many an episode where cases were left off the website or the website featured cases that weren't profiled on the show. And as walshfan's guide has proved, that's nothing new; it was happening in 1999/2000 as well.

I managed to find what I was looking for! I web archived searched the TV Guide page and found a 2011 saved page of the episodes up until that point. What is especially interesting are all of those episodes before July 11, 1999. Those are episodes from 1988-1998. Now those aren't saved as far as I can tell but each URL link for the episodes contains a number combination. So I put that combination into the current URL format and I found the episode listing. www.tvguide.com/tvshows/americas-most-wanted/episode-865337/100031/ (Case: Scheduled: A fugitive sought for making false claims to prospective adoptive parents while swindling them out of thousands of dollars.) I believe this was a 1995 case and the fugitive was later found in prison, but I don't remember the name of the fugitive. The episode may have been about fugitives who prayed on parents wanting to have young children so Loretto Villar was probably aired on it if that was the case. web.archive.org/web/20111027025037/https://www.tvguide.com/tvshows/americas-most-wanted/episodes/100031/ (Here's the main link I'm talking about)

That first case might be Larry Castaneda. I wonder if the second one is Jeff Boston, a direct AMW capture who was also featured on Final Justice. That Illinois case might be Raymond Scoville. That doctor could be either Mohammed Ali or Fernando Aymat - or another fugitive we're unaware of.

That last one is Yehia Badawi, AMW Capture #400. I'm about 100% certain of it; the description of the crime matches him perfectly.

There were also no ultimatums issued in the Maloney case, as far as I remember. Sounds like him, but I don't think it is.
