FBI'S MOST WANTED
A law enforcement task force is looking for a man, now believed living in Greater Cleveland, who is accused of fatally shooting a woman in a Philadelphia bar.
Maurice Booker, 39, was charged in Philadelphia with the murder of Leondra Rice on May 6, 1994. He also was charged under a federal arrest warrant with unlawful flight to avoid prosecution.
In addition, an arrest warrant was issued on July 8, 1994, in Arlington, Va., charging Booker with desertion from the Marine Corps.
Booker is black, 5 feet 9, and weighs 195 pounds. He has black hair and brown eyes.
Recent investigations indicated Booker is living in Greater Cleveland and frequents the Lorain area.
The only available photographs of Booker date from 1994. He would now appear older and has changed his facial appearance, authorities said.
Since Maurice Booker is listed on the Philadelphia Most Wanted website, our advice for anyone with information on his whereabouts would be to submit a web tip to them at www.phillymostwanted.org/default.aspx?menuitemid=781

Thoughts? Maurice Booker was another fugitive I learned more about through NewsLibrary archives. If we have information on his whereabouts as late as 2006 then he shouldn't be very difficult to locate, AMW could have even caught him if profiled on their show that year. I imagine if he's not currently in Ohio anymore then he may have moved on to a different Midwest State like Indiana or Michigan.
