AMW Capture Directory #2 (2021-Present)

The previous AMW Captures Directory was so flooded with posts and responses that it wasn't worth having all the previous captures described in the first 2 pages and picking up 10, 20, or 30 pages later. Which is why I'm requesting that if there's anything to add, comments should be posted in that thread to avoid breaking up the directory here, since I doubt individual posts can be transplanted from one topic to another.

EDIT FROM SITE ADMIN: The below capture directory information is not an official management posting and is being updated by a member of the forum based on their following of the show. If there are proof of any inaccuracies, please e-mail the website contact form (whining and complaining that one of the fugitives who is your father, cousin etc... is on here and it's unfair because they were innocent or "not the monster they were made out to be" does not count as inaccuracies (unless they were found innocent in court), but anything about what they were wanted for, how much time they received etc... may apply). Here is the link to the website contact form: amwfans.com/board/33/website-contact-form


Now that we have a direct capture from AMW's March '021 revival, now is a better time than ever to launch the next phase to this directory.

Philip Michael Dent, Capture #1187-B, Mrc. 18, 2021
A carjacker out of the Columbine Valley district of Littleton, Colorado. 4 days before February 2021, he was caught on tape walking up to a minivan, in the middle of a car wash enclosure, and attempting to yank out a circa 1957 born woman. She fought back, and shortly after Dent bit her, he got the upper hand and took off, but her injuries were thankfully not considered serious. He was busted at a hotel in either Littleton or Denver, 3 days after AMW was reintroduced with Elizabeth Vargas as the replacement host. AMW acknowledged the direct capture on social media a week later. However, Vargas' capture counter left out 18 previous captures, bringing the total down to 1186 when it re-premiered and making Dent the replacement Capture #1187. Our position tentatively says that all the 1204 captures AMW had going up to June 2013 still stand for the most part, but we'll have problems of some kind with the numbering for a while.

Alison Gracey (RELEASED) and Christopher Jones, Capture #1188-B / #1189-B, Apl. 9, 2021
Two British nationals who operated a charter boat in Key Largo, Florida named Get Wet. In 2011, the boat they they were suspected of recklessly captaining took on water, capsized, and sank within 2 minutes. A novice scuba diver who was visiting on holiday was killed, another diver was badly injured but recovered, and 4 other guests survived with minimal wounds. Various Dutch authorities captured them on St. Maarten, in the Caribbean, around June 2015, and confiscated their passports, but also released them on bond, their lawyer and the courts both underestimating the flight risk. That September, the court voted no on their request to forbid extradition, but due to a jurisdictional mishap, they exploited a loophole and applied for replacement passports from Britain, where a court voted yes. But before anyone could bring them back to Florida, the two had moved far away, most likely to France. Four days after the 4-05-021 broadcast of the AMW revival, tips pinpointed them in Madrid, Spain. But it took a while before they were back on United Statish soil, and the laws let them off easy; Because of another legal technicality, Gracey was only facing up to 8 years in prison, and Jones was facing a single decade. In mid September 2021, the extradition proceedings against Gracey went through, and in January 2022, Gracey and Jones were back on US soil. They pled guilty in late May 2022, and in September, Gracey was sentenced to time served after 1 1/2 year with one more year of supervised release, and Christopher was sentenced to 4 1/4 years in prison and 3 years of supervised release. Both will be deported once their terms conclude, and it's generally agreed justice wasn't served.

Maurice "Mega Ruckus" Nesbitt, Capture #1190-B, Apl. 19, 2021
An amateur rapper, and possible gang banger, drug runner, and sex slave trafficker, who constantly earned mockery for his pathetic attempts to look tough. His last relationship started in 2008, with him constantly beating up his girlfriend and breaking her spirits. In 2014, she fled to an apartment complex in southwestern Atlanta, hoping to end the violent relationship, but Nesbitt shot her to death, after which her mother discovered the body the next morning. He was initially arrested and charged soon after, but a Georgia state law placed a 3 month time limit on the courts to return an indictment, after which their hands got tied and they let him out with an ankle monitoring bracelet on a technicality. In 2016, Nesbitt was apparently under the impression that he had cancer, and could've never gotten proper treatment for it in jail, but a loophole in Georgia's court procedure laws placed Nesbitt above the burden of proof, after which he absconded from another court date, got arrested again, and severed his ankle monitoring bracelet. He didn't go to court in October 2017 when his conviction was read, and was sentenced to life in prison in absentia soon after. In the winter of 2019, his case was introduced on In Pursuit With John Walsh, and was also profiled on the 4-12-2021 episode of AMW. It seems AMW, In Pursuit and Crime Stoppers all received tips in the aftermath and all took credit for Nesbitt as a direct capture. Despite a couple days' worth of confusion over this fact, the important thing was that a tipster did the right thing and ended a particularly agonizing 7 year wait for justice.
