Suspected serial killer Ignacio Espinoza has been wanted for over 20 years. Investigators attempted to get the case on AMW, however it didn't end up being featured on the show.
Authorities in three states say that Ignacio Espinoza murdered at least three migrant workers in the 1990s for no apparent reason. He's suspected in a 1990 murder in either Lee or Collier County, Florida (sources differ on exact location), a 1993 murder in Stillwell, Arkansas and a 1997 murder in Wayne County, North Carolina. He was last arrested in 1993 in Okeechobee County, Florida on fraud charges. A national manhunt was launched in 2000 however authorities have never located Espinoza.
Thoughts? Espinoza was a migrant farm worker himself so if he hasn't been linked to any murders after 1997, it's possible he fled to Latin America. Also this is a very rare example of a wanted serial killer, especially one that's been on the run for so long.
