AMW this week

Saturday's most important "you have to watch this" show, America's Most Wanted will be aired at 9pm on your local Fox Station.

Vincent Ledoux of Cherokee County, Oklahoma was charged with sexually abusing a child, but before he could be tried, he took off. Police have issued a warrant for his arrest and now they along with America's Most Wanted are hoping that you can help bring him him to face justice.

CF-95-00168 06/26/1995 Defendant (OSW*) - LEDOUX, VINCENT A. STATE OF OKLAHOMA vs. LEDOUX, VINCENT A. RAPE, FIRST DEGREE Cherokee

CF-96-00096 04/01/1996 Defendant (OSW*) - LEDOUX, VINCENT A. STATE OF OKLAHOMA vs. LEDOUX, VINCENT A. FORCIBLE SODOMY

Some more of the cases AMW will be airing this weekend:
Goose Creek, South Carolina…Daniel William Hiers…This former cop, an accused murderer and child molester, has been on the run for more than two years. He is on the U.S. Marshals 15 Most Wanted List and is one of AMW’s Dirty Dozen.


Oklahoma City, Oklahoma…Kenneth Marshall Cofer…AMW tipsters have provided several clues that investigators have followed up on, but so far nothing concrete has panned out. Authorities are still hopeful that they will be able to track down this alleged killer, and bring some peace to the family of Larry Buchanan.


Metaire, Louisiana…Edmundo Cerda-Anima…The manhunt for this accused killer has gone international. Police now believe the former Hurricane Katrina contractor may be going back and forth between the United States and Mexico, and if he’s caught he’ll have to answer for a lot more than just illegal border crossings.


Atlanta, Georgia…Michael Anthony Powell…The FBI tells us this is one guy you don’t want to play games with. When you gamble with Powell, apparently you gamble with your life. He is wanted in Atlanta for shooting a man who accused him of cheating in a game of dice.


San Lorenzo, California…Jose “Baby” Hernandez…Cops say Jose Hernandez opened fire at a party in San Lorenzo, California, killing two men. Hernandez claims to be a member of the “Border Brothers” street gang, and may be hiding in Oakland, California.


Phoenix, Arizona…William “Bubba” Ray Plemons…Police say William Plemons has a reputation as a real romantic, at least until you get to know him better. Plemons carried on a series of relationships from behind bars, but according to authorities, he was more interested in money than love. When one woman threatened to unravel his alleged scheme, police say Plemons turned from Casanova into killer.


St. Francis, Wisconsin…KEITH GORES MISSING…When 56-year-old Keith Gores woke up on Thursday, March 22, he told his wife he thought it was Saturday. After he got dressed and left for work, Gores disappeared. Now, his wife wonders if Gores was confused and suffering from amnesia after a nasty fall on the ice outside their home earlier this year.


Dorchester, Massachusetts…Ernest E. Ferguson…In 1992 Earnest Ferguson became a victim when he was shot in the face. He survived, fully recovered, and 13 years later cops say he was ready to get even. However, police say Ferguson’s quest for revenge was not fulfilled because he allegedly killed an innocent man.


Westminster, Maryland…AMW ALL-STAR WEEK 7 WINNER – Eric Workman…Trooper First Class Eric Workman is the kind of police officer who is virtually unstoppable. In the early morning hours of December 12, 2006, a team of Maryland State Troopers served a search warrant for a suspect. The suspect opened fire from above, hitting Workman. Despite the wound, he returned fire fatally wounding the suspect. After spending two days on life support, a week in the hospital, and just three months in physical therapy Trooper Workman returned to duty.

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...
