Yaser Said- Texas- 2008 (Added in 2014) (CAPTURED!!!!!!!)

So frustrating to me they haven't caught him yet since unlike other fugitives on the list, he's not that smart a person (he is no Derek Brown or even Robert Fisher in level of intelligence), but unfortunately if you're in a country where you can't be extradited, or you have a family that goes out of their way to hide you, it doesn't matter how smart or dumb you are. That is if he's in Egypt.

I dunno, that photo, albeit a private eye's blog, looked a lot like Yaser.

I hope he's still in the U.S., as it makes a capture more likely, but my mind's changed to more likely in Egypt.

They HAVE extradited fugitives before, but it seems it takes a while to get them to do so when they do.

I know one possible lead is Yaser working as a taxi driver in NYC but was thinking maybe the FBI should do a new publicity blitz emphasizing Yaser possible working for Uber or Lyft or a similar rideshare service and looking out for that as well. Uber currently doesn't do fingerprinting background checks and in my opinion it would be pretty easy for Yaser to get around possibly using a relative's vehicle/registration on an app as himself (this isn't meant to sound racist, but there is a probably a relative that can look similar enough to Yaser that you can't really tell the difference in a driver photo).

This is assuming Yaser isn't already believed/confirmed to be in Egypt in the FBI (as the photo on the Bill Warner blog did look pretty convincing, regardless of what you think about Bill Warner) which would make this Uber suggestion a moot point.

I found what unfortunately turned out to be a false hope status update (actually debatable whether it would have been good news or not) that a body was picked up from a Texas hopsital by Yaser's family last fall thought to possibly be Yaser- but it turned out to be another member of the Said family.

Kinda torn how I'd feel if it ever happened for real since Yaser did seem to have and probably still has some unhealthy vices and can possibly pass away while on the run- but it would also mean he got away with it. So I'd still like to see him taken alive and I only want to see him die if it's a slow and torturous death.

Question: do we know if Yaser smokes Marlboro 100s frequently or just on a social smoker sort-of basis? At his age, he could be potentially dealing with health problems on the run if he smoked heavily.

Here’s the travel advisory for Egypt as it pertains to where Yaser Said would have an easier to live if in Egypt.

Sinai Peninsula

The Sinai Peninsula remains a particularly dangerous area, with frequent attacks on security forces and civilians.
