Now would be as good as time as ever for finally a new addition. Also while I was joking about the reasoning and I'm not trying to get political, I do think while Comey has remained as Director, since we are in a transition period with the Presidency, and not to mention they seem to be busy with the Russia investigations, also rumors Comey is upset with Trump over his tweets accusing Obama of spying on him, they all could explain the lack of a top 10 addition for a few months since the FBI has kind of busy with other things. This is not to give a political opinion on any of these topics (ask me privately or in the off-topic section fine, but I feel this thread should not get too political), just saying it has been kind of a wild past few months for the FBI. The Top 10 list, as much as we like to discuss it, and no means downplaying it, honestly might not be as important as other priorities at the moment.

On Amw fans there are some threads that get more replies than others, and on the FBI Top Ten list, Robert Fisher had always been the runner up here on the site, but now there's a new runner up.
1. Jason Derek Brown
2. William Bradford Bishop
3. Robert Fisher
4. Yaser Said
5. Alexis Flores
6. Luis Macedo
7. Eduardo Ravelo

Lol cloudy days are good days for Top Ten additions (I have a thing for cloudy days btw).
The last time they added 3 fugitives was when they added Joe Saenz, Eduardo Ravelo and Semion Mogilevich and that was within a matter of 4 days (1 fugitive each day) and obviously they added 3 in December of 2016.
It's been an active month for sure and perhaps the list will stay like this for awhile here because we are in transition, however it hasn't taken longer than usual since it's taken the FBI 5 months to replace Shanika Minor. Marlon Jones has been sitting for 4 months as captured, while Strickland and Van Wisse have been on there 2-2 1/2 months listed as captured.

With the addition of Walter Yovany-Gomez today (04/12/17) I wonder how long it will take to apprehend him and who the next 2 additions will be.

Also, a historical footnote and I swear this is not to be political but this is the first top 10 addition with Trump as President LOL.
Also, it seems Gomez replaced Marlon Jones which makes sense chronologically.

Indeed it is and he was a violent gang member, but they needed a brutal drug related fugitive to replace Jones and at the end of 2016 they seemed to make Gomez their case of the Week a lot.
Strickland and Van Wisse (in that order) are the ones that need to be replaced.
If Joseph Jakubowski remains at large, there's a good chance he's going to be added. However we could also get our first crimes against children fugitive in 4 years as Gomez wasn't a Murder fugitive technically.

How was he not a murder fugitive? I forget but what was he in the criminal enterprise section? In any case, he still killed someone lol. Also, I don't think the FBI purposely chooses to replace one type of fugitive with another type of fugitive like hey let's replace a drug fugitive with another drug fugitive. It just happened to turn out that way with Gomez. Remember, they once replaced Bin Laden with Eric Toth which are two of the most different types of cases you're ever going to get. Also, I want to clarify in case it wasn't clear, Comey was director long before Trump was President, and I don't believe Gomez's addition had anything to do with who was in office. Just wanted to point out the historical footnote.

I meant that he wasn't on the murders section rather on the Criminal enterprise investigations section, and uniquely he was the only if not a few sought for murder on there. Also this addition is very significant in that sense, especially since he's the first fugitive from New Jersey in awhile. In the past these MS13 fugitives don't run for too long (Rivera-Gracias, Juan Garcia), but since he is technically a longtimer at 6 years, this case could go both ways. Since Maryland is a hub for MS13 I feel he's here or in Northern Virginia, where they have been causing havoc lately.

This week has been very eventful because of the addition of Bhadreshkumar Patel.
As a Marylander I'm glad Patel and Brad Bishop are currently on the FBI's Ten Most Wanted list, as much as I wish we would never have to use most wanted lists to begin with.
Adding Patel and already having Bishop on the national spotlight, I give the FBI Baltimore, Anne Arundel and Montgomery County police departments credit in their efforts to locate these fugitives. The time is now to get them 😊.
Now personally I think the FBI may add a #11 as every difficult fugitive has been removed from the list and the Current 9 at large are obviously the worst of the worst. Again It may just be a glitch, but then again there's nobody who stands out for removal at this time.
The only fugitives I think the FBI may add are Alejandro Castillo, Stephen Gilbert or Dwight Lewis as they're recent cases.

I still don't see the FBI ever going to 11 in the neat future unless a special circumstance breaking case. Even in that case, as much as we like discussing the top 10 list, it isn't necessary for resources and publicity if a case is well known enough. I was watching a press conference about Steve Stephens and they basically said he's not on the top 10 list because everyone in America knows who he is anyway and they're putting their full resources into finding him anyway. (those weren't their exact words, but they implied it.) They removed the difficult cases because of that lull they had in captures.

Okay so it turns out that the FBI having 11 fugitives was only a Glitch and chronologically as expected, Robert Van Wisse will be the last fugitive to be replaced (as he was the last one to be located).
Anyone want to take any guesses which category the next fugitive will be? Crimes against Children? Murders- Violent Crimes? Additional Violent Crimes? Or name a fugitive who could be a good pick for the last open slot?

Most of the fugitives added lately have been wanted for murder or attempted murder. My assumption is that trend will continue. (The Corey Perry case was so severe he was probably on his way to the top 10 list before his suicide).

I wouldn't be surprised if the FBI was saving the last slot for Corey Perry before he committed suicide as I do agree his crime was over the top.

Throwback Thursday: This week 20 years ago was the beginning of the killing spree perpetrated by Andrew Cunanan, who was the 449th fugitive added to the FBI's Top 10 list in 1997. He committed several murders in Minnesota, 1 in New Jersey and 1 in Florida before being found dead in a boathouse in North Miami Beach, Florida on July 24, 1997. minnesota.cbslocal.com/2017/05/03/andrew-cunanan-20-years/

I remember watching MSNBC every night for updates on the case (back then it was more news-themed at night as opposed to them and Fox News's now opinion-themed prime time coverage). What was frustrating was AMW nearly caught Andrew Cunanan multiple times during his crime spree (and before he murdered Gianni Versace in Florida.) I remember they interviewed John Walsh on MSNBC during the boathouse drama where the house was surrounded and Cunanan shot himself, which played out on live on tv.
