Also some technical notes:
-The Alan Diaz homicide apparently happened during a drug deal involving Bircher and three alleged co-defendants. Counterfeit money was said to be used to allegedly purchase marijuana. wsbt.com/news/local/four-men-charged-in-march-2020-fatal-shooting
I put 2020 as the wanted year because of the Indiana case. I do not know the alleged incident or warrant year for the Cass County, Michigan case at the moment.
