This week's AMW

This week some of the cases being featured on America's Most Wanted are:

Boston, Massachusetts…JAMES “WHITEY” BULGER…After the Oscar-winning motion picture "The Departed," a movie based on organized crime in Boston, was released, the FBI was flooded with rumors about sightings of the famous Boston mob boss. Now, new clues have surfaced in the international manhunt for this notorious mobster.

Harrisonburg, Virginia…RONALD JEROME JONES CAPTURE…After more than 20 years on the run, police say it took just 15 seconds on AMW to catch accused killer Ronald Jerome Jones. Virginia State Police have called Jones one of the most elusive fugitives they've looked for, but after Jones got his "15 Seconds of Shame" on Saturday night's AMW, a tipster reported that Jones was hiding in plain sight -- living as a homeless person in Greensboro, North Carolina.

New York, New York…RONALD RODRIGUEZ…Ronald Rodriguez is wanted in New York for killing a man who asked him to stop littering in the street. Rodriguez goes by the name ‘Shorty’ because he’s only five-foot-one. Cops say he could be hiding in New York, Georgia, or the Carolinas.

Flushing, Michigan…DAVID ANDREWS…Cops in Flushing, Michigan say David Andrews befriended co-workers and neighbors and then molested their children. He loves ice hockey, and has worked as a short order cook. Andrews could be in Rhode Island, Florida, or Ohio.

Wheeling, West Virginia…UNKNOWN WHEELING, WEST VIRGINIA KIDNAPPER…The FBI says he's a sexual predator who has already targeted two unsuspecting girls - and he could strike again anytime. But who is he? According to FBI agents, the answer may lie within the clothing left behind by an 11-year-old victim - a pair of pink socks and a red hooded sweatshirt. These could be key forensic clues, and could help someone identify this kidnapper.

Queens, New York…UNKNOWN ROSE MORAT MUGGER…New Yorkers say they are outraged by recent news in their city. An unknown attacker was caught on surveillance tape slugging a 101-year-old woman in her Queens apartment after cops say he had attacked another woman in her 80's just thirty minutes earlier. The public says they have had enough of the violence and are putting their foot down. Harsher laws may soon be passed to punish anyone who hurts the elderly.

Washington, DC…UNKNOWN DC HOUSEKEEPER SERIAL RAPIST…For the past four years, six different police jurisdictions in the Washington, DC area have been on the hunt for the man cops say is forensically linked to the violent rapes of six hotel housekeepers. Between the jurisdictions, authorities have three different composites -- but only one goal: find this monster and bring him to justice.

Sonoma County, California…UNKNOWN JASON ALLEN AND LINDSAY CUTSHALL KILLER…It’s a question that cops in Sonoma County, California are asking...could some devil-like carvings on driftwood be the clues that unlock the 2004 murders of Jason Allen and Lindsay Cutshall?

Dallas, Texas…NORMA MORALES AND DAFNE DESTINY MORALES MISSING…Cops in Dallas, Texas are searching for 8-month-old Dafne Destiny Morales and her mother, Norma Morales. They disappeared after they left their apartment on February 24, 2007 and haven't been seen since. Cops believe they are in danger.

Sarasota, Florida…GARTH MALLOY…Police in Sarasota, Florida have been looking for a man who they say sexually molested a 15-year-old boy in 2001. But cops say this wasn't the first sick act committed by Garth Malloy -- they say this fugitive's sick crimes date back two decades. It's time to bring Malloy down before he has a chance to hurt another child.

Guided by practical experience and not theory, especially in medicine Kennedy hate crimes rider may doom Hatch's sex offender bill By Robert Gehrke The Salt Lake Tribune WASHINGTON - A fight over federal hate crimes legislation could torpedo Sen. Orrin Hatch's push to strengthen the nation's sex-offender registries and clamp down on sex crimes. The Senate Judiciary Committee gave quick, unanimous approval to Hatch's bill Thursday, clearing its way for consideration by the full Senate. But Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-Mass., said he plans to try to attach language to a bill that would require tougher sentences, provide federal assistance and offer grants to prosecute hate crimes - those motivated by hatred for a race, religion, gender or sexual orientation.

Florida Sex Offender Registry

Reading the news today, I was taken back to see that the Florida Sex Offender registry was being criticized. Having had the chance to look at it previously, I had always found it rather informative, and well organized. The issue that many are having with it now wouldn't be noticed by the occasional browser on the site. Which makes it even worse. A review of the FSR has found some rather unsettling statistics: The News-Press analyzed the Florida Department of Law Enforcement database of 36,306 sex offenders and found: • 9,205 of them are incarcerated • 7,037 have run away or can't be found • 824 have been deported; and • 516 are dead. Of the 15,573 sex offenders listed as released and not on parole or probation, only 11,355 of those actually live in Florida. Sex offender registries can only be usefully, and only fully do what they where designed to do when they are updated, maintained and monitored continuously. When you are relying on the SO registries to monitors how safe your...
