I'm of the school that believes he's no longer alive but it would be good to have answers either way. Just not sure if we'll get them. I agree, I think he killed himself by hiding somewhere in the caves, I hoped the authorities used hi-tech techology to located his body.

Someone had mentioned that it might be possible if fisher is alive that he is hiding out on a Native American reservation in Arizona, Oklahoma or Else Where while Fisher isn’t Native American I’ve read of insistence where fugitive have hid out there to avoid police and communication from the outside world.

Almost a year after Fisher was removed from the Top Ten List, currently I’m on the assumption that Fisher likely died in the caves not by his own hand, but either an accident or he got trapped deep in the caves around the area where Mary’s SUV was located.
Fisher was in the spotlight for nearly 20 years as a top ten fugitive, and even today he still is, but I don’t think Fisher is or has been alive for decades at this point, and I don’t think he took his own life nor did he plan on it, I just think that the way human nature is, karma may have did its thing and got Fisher for what he did to his own family. The caves could’ve collapsed and killed him, or even wounded him seriously that subsequently resulted in his death, or even worse, Fisher got trapped deep in the caves and likely starved and dehydrated to death.
Either of these scenarios is a likely middle ground compared to the theories of his possible suicide or that he’s alive, and it’s also a fitting end to a monster who committed such a heinous act.

I tend to agree with you. New doco about the case- www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7hoOwvGSw0 This one actually shows some of the photos from alleged sightings of him which i'd never seen before. I didn't think any of them looked particularly like him though

Lets not dismiss the fact that eye witness claim to see him heading for a camp ground on foot not far away from where the SUV was ditched. Just my opinion that he met up with someone there

Great to finally see the photo of the guy at the Canadian border too. A dead ringer on the profile shot but obviously not him on the mugshot

I have watched the most recent documentary. I still believe Robert is alive, but I have less confidence.
Some key takeaways:
1) There was a strong sighting of him at a Target store on January 24, 2002. The store location is unknown.
2) Photos of the Guatemala sighting released.
3) The detectives are divided on him being alive. Two detectives assigned to the case believe he is alive, the current detective does not.
4) Robert had planned the murders at least two weeks in advance, when he told a family friend that he was certain they would never run four-wheelers up by Tonto National Forest ever again.
5) That same family friend believes that Fisher fled to Rye, AZ after dumping Mary’s SUV. He said that he listened in on a conversation Robert had with another person where Robert seemed fascinated that this person would commute to Rye via motorbike and he was able to go to Rye with very little traffic.
6) Robert did have some spelunking experience before graduating from high school. However, the cave he was suspected of hiding in, Club 41 Cave, has been thoroughly been searched since, and no trace of Fisher has been found in that cave. Signatures from someone signing their name “Robert Fisher” found years later in the cave’s logbook did not appear to match Robert’s known signature.
7) There was a tip in 2007 or 2008 by a woman who said she was at a rural store in central Arizona, and a ranch hand saw Robert’s poster on the counter and recognized him immediately. He insisted Robert had done nothing wrong, and left with what appeared to be the rancher he was with. Unfortunately, that tipster didn’t get the license plate of the pickup they were in.
I think this case had a lot of missed opportunities. I also feel like the FBI threw in the towel way too soon on this case, too. I feel like they should have given at least one final push on the case in hopes of trying to solve it.

Surprisingly Fisher was one of the two 15 Seconds of Shame fugitives on tonight's episode of In Pursuit. (Season 4- episode 3- 9/7/2022)

There a guy on websluths who thinks Fisher is his neighbor according to him he has the gold tooth and matches Fisher age and looks.I’m begging him to submit the audio and ring doorbell footage he has of his neighbor to The fbi.

I would also encourage him to delete the posting since that information should not be public and then submit to the FBI Initally is fine since it seemed he was asking for advice but it bugs me how many times I have to tell people who register here and post the exact address or town where they supposedly know where a fugitive is that I had to delete their post because they could in theory be reading the site, thus tipping them off to flee again. It should be common sense.

I learned the reason Fisher didn't get a full profile but a 15 SOS instead is John Walsh thinks he's dead. This isn't based on anything in particular, but his personal opinion. So kind of interesting he feels that way considering how personally he's taken the case over the years.

John Walsh would probably be in a good position to know that, as he probably felt like the leads even dating back to the AMW days were not getting them anywhere.

Very true, he probably saw there were never any super promising leads- well aside from the look-a-like in Canada.

I think a year and a half after Robert Fisher was removed from the Top Ten, really changed my perspective on the case itself. At first I was bummed out, but now I realized that he doesn’t need to be on the top ten list nor would it have helped further, mainly because I have hope that if Fisher is still alive he will eventually end up like Rick McLean. McLean lived quietly as a mouse in the south for nearly 2 decades only with life catching up with him is what led to his discovery and I believe the same will happen with Fisher for the reason that he’s a loner and doesn’t draw attention to himself, granted there is other ways he can get caught if still alive, but I feel this is the more appropriate thing that may happen in the future given his habits and characteristics.

I'm still upset McLean relatively got away with it, living until his 70s and dying of natural causes basically. I much prefer cases like Donald Eugene Webb, where even though he died it seemed he suffered in declining health.
