AMW This Week

America's Most Wanted airs at 9pm on your local Fox station every (or almost every) Saturday night. This week's episodes will be highlighting the following cases:

Northern New Jersey…
UNKNOWN NEW JERSEY MAD HATTER UPDATE...Cops in New Jersey say the Mad Hatter has a red face -- but not because he's embarrassed. The serial bank robber who's been stalking their state since September tried robbing his 17th bank, but a teller slipped a dye pack in with the stolen cash, and cops say it literally exploded in the Mad Hatter's face as he ran from the bank.


Phoenix, Arizona…
MIKHAIL DRACHEV CAPTURE…When Mikhail Drachev finally told his fiancée his real name, it led to his capture. The five-year manhunt came to an end thanks to dogged detectives, and a courageous woman who found out the truth on amw.com.


Hialeah, Florida…
RICARDO OLMEDO…Police say Ricardo Olmedo got away with horrible crimes against children for years -- until one day, when two victims came forward.


Orlando, Florida…
EMANUEL VEIGA…Florida law enforcement officials are searching nationwide for Emanuel Veiga - an accused child rapist - who cut off his tracking device and took off. Now cops need your help to track him down.


AMW will also be featuring the disappearance of Canton Ohio missing mom Jesse (or Jessie) Marie Davis. Davis, who is 9 months pregnant, and due at the start of July, has been missing for nearly a week now. Police say that she was last spoken to by her mother Wednesday night, and her 2 year old son was discovered alone in their home Friday morning.

Jesse is expecting the child of a local police officer, who is currently married. While police have said that he is not a suspect, it seems that they haven't checked him off the list of possible suspects either.

For more on Jesse's case from AMW, please read their information page.

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...
