Whitey Bulger Stands Trial While Millions Offered For “Top Ten Most Wanted Fugitives” (Videos)

At one time, James Joseph “Whitey” Bulger, Jr, born September 3, 1929 was on the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s Top Ten Most Wanted List: today, a defeated old man, he sits in a Boston maximum security cell block awaiting the justice of the court. June 12, 2012, Bulger went on trial for nineteen alleged murders.  An associate in crime, Kevin Weeks has testified Bulger “killed 40 men” in his lifetime that Weeks knows about. Prior to his arrest on June 22, 2011, Bulger had the dubious distinction of being prominently featured on the FBI’s most wanted list for more than 12 years. At the time of his arrest, Bulger was 81 years old.

Although Bugler remained at large for more than 12 years, his capture and prosecution were the direct result of the publicity and exposure he received featured on the FBI Ten Most Wanted Fugitives List. The list, developed to increase law enforcement’s ability to alert the public of desperate and dangerous criminals on the loose and to seek the public’s help in bringing them to justice, has proved highly effective. The Federal Bureau of Investigation offers substantial rewards for information leading to the capture of these vicious criminals. Since the advent of the Internet, the world has become a much smaller place. Someone out there has seen or knows these extremely dangerous rapists, sexual perverts, murders, arsonists, crooks and thieves. The FBI advises, be part of the solution. Protect your family, your local community, and the nation by helping the FBI catch wanted terrorists and fugitives.

 

One of these fugitives could be the neighbor next door, the new guy at work or your child’s teacher.

Don’t think it could happen to you? Just last week a Nazi charged with atrocious war crimes was discovered living in suburb of Minneapolis. You can imagine the neighbors and friends surprise when they read the headlines. “Michael Karkoc 94 Year Old Nazi SS Baby Killer Identified.” When interviewed by reporters, neighbors said he was a great guy, helpful, friendly and kind: “a wolf in sheep’s clothing- hiding in plain sight.”

 

Leslie Isben Rogge, who stole more than $2 million dollars from over 30 banks, was the first criminal appended because of the Internet. On May 18, 1996, after 30 years of living in hiding, Rogge surrendered to law enforcement authorities at the American Embassy in Guatemala. Rogge abandoned his life on the run after Guatemalan authorities commenced an aggressive manhunt upon being tipped by a viewer that saw Rogge photo on the Internet. Rogge is currently serving a 65-year prison sentence at United States Prison Beaumont, Texas. Victor Manuel Gerena, wanted in connection with the armed robbery of approximately $7 million from a security company in Connecticut in 1983 has been featured on the Top Ten list for more than 29 years. The FBI is determined that Gerena be known not as the criminal on the list the longest, but rather the last one caught.A million dollar reward is offered for information leading to Gerena’s arrest.

Keep you eyes open and help put the scum in prison where they belong. If you are alert and locate one of these criminals, contact local law enforcement authorities or the Federal Bureau of Investigation immediately.

 

On June 16, Walter Lee Williams became No. 500 to hit the list. Once added to the Ten Most Wanted Fugitive list, a wanted man or woman is restlessly pursued; their name only removed when they are captured or dead. To date, the FBI has successfully arrested 466 persons whose names have appeared on the list. “You can run, but you can’t hide.”
