AMW, This Week

This week, America's Most Wanted will be sharing the following cases, and hoping that you may be able to assist in solving them.

Sherman Oaks, California…
DAVID WEIR…Victoria Ramirez and David Weir first met during Victoria's sophomore year in high school -- and though they later broke up, they eventually reunited and moved in together. Police say the relationship was on the rocks due to Weir's alleged infidelity and dalliance with drugs. But before 22-year-old Victoria could break up with Weir, police say he took matters into his own hands.

Newport News, Virginia…
ANTHONY EASON…Private First Class Jamel Bennett has seen war firsthand, serving his country in Iraq. But he was only home in Newport News, Virginia a few months when he found himself under fire again -- and this time, the battlefield was his own backyard. Police say Jamel ended up staring down the barrel of a gun, and now authorities want to find alleged shooter Anthony Eason.

Lancaster, Pennsylvania…
CHARLES WALTON…Police say 35-year-old Charles Walton has never held a regular job or paid his own rent. In fact, cops believe there's only one thing he's ever been particularly good at, and that's being a fugitive. Three years after he was charged with molesting a little girl, police say they still can't find him -- and now they need your help.

Florence, Alabama…
RICHARD SLOAN…Police are searching for a sex offender that walked away from a work release program. He has a reputation for living outside the law and should be considered dangerous.

Nationwide…TIM MILLER / TEXAS EQUUSEARCH FEATURE…
The Texas EquuSearch Mounted Search and Recovery Team was started in August 2000 in memory of founder Tim Miller's sixteen-year-old daughter, Laura, who was abducted, raped and brutally murdered in September 1984. In October 2005, we followed Texas EquuSearch down to Aruba in search of missing teen Natalee Holloway. Now we join them once again to hunt for the body of Kenneth Cummings Jr.; a murdered Texas man.


America's Most Wanted airs on you local Fox station at 9pm on Saturdays, tune in to see these cases and others, or stop by the AMW website.

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...
