A fugitive AMW first profiled all the way back in 1992 has reportedly been caught and re-convicted in Greece. Steven Kamberidis was sought after being convicted for beating his two-year old stepson to death in New Hampshire in 1989. He disappeared in 1991, one day before he was convicted. An FBI agent said that Kamberidis would serve out the rest of his sentence in Greece but refused to elborate to a Boston television station. Further details are expected later today. boston.cbslocal.com/2013/05/10/fugitive-new-hampshire-child-killer-missing-since-1991-found-in-greece/ |

To those who don't know, Kamberidis is the man in my avatar (I was looking for a fugitive who resembled me, and he was the closest I could find.) Glad to see he's been captured, although I wasn't happy to see an article where it mentioned he only got 18 years. Way too short for the death of a toddler.

I had no idea that was him! I'm sorry to see the light sentence and have to ask if Greece ALWAYS gives light sentences, since Dimitrious Androuspolous was not given enough imo either, but I'm still glad to see he was at least captured.

I always meant to do a thread on him, but I was still looking for info. Specifically, I was looking to see why he beat the kid. Was he crying?, etc. Glad he was captured before though.

I'm sorry to see the light sentence and have to ask if Greece ALWAYS gives light sentences, since Dimitrious Androuspolous was not given enough imo either, but I'm still glad to see he was at least captured. I have a bit of knowledge about Greek courts, since I'm half-Greek myself (my mom's side of the family is 100% Greek). Greece is VERY protective of its citizens, to the point where, two generations after a family leaves Greece, they still give you Greek citizenship (my grandmother and mother, despite both being born in America, have dual-citizenship. I, on the other hand, don't). As a result, if a fugitive can prove they're Greek and can flee to Greece, good luck getting them to come back. This is something every Greek knows about, so if they get in trouble they know the homeland will protect them. It's incredibly frustrating, but in the cases of Androutsopoulos and Kamberidis, I'm honestly astounded they went as far as actually having a trial for them and convicting them. I'm willing to say 20 years ago, they wouldn't have even done that. Now you know why I don't hold out hope that Spiro Germenis will be caught. |
