  Photo Credits: Federal Bureau of Investigation Aliases: Barrett Preston Bussachau, Barrett Preston Busschall, Barrett Busschall Date(s) of Birth Used: February 11, 1975 Place of Birth: Johannesburg, Transvaal, South Africa Hair: Brown Eyes: Blue Height: 5'11" to 6'0" Weight: 165 pounds Sex: Male Race: White Nationality: South African Scars and Marks: Busschau has scars on his left ankle, left arm, and upper right arm. He also has a tattoo of a green and purple yin-yang symbol with a wavy line and two dots on his right ankle. NCIC: W830822550 Remarks: Busschau was born in South Africa, but came to the United States in 1984 and was granted legal permanent residence status in the United States in April of 1989. He may have traveled to California or Panama, but he is now believed to be living in South Africa. Caution: Barrett Preston Busschau was arrested on July 27, 1993, by local authorities in Clackamas County, Oregon, for the alleged molestation of five girls between the ages of ten and fifteen. At that time, he was charged with Sexual Penetration with a Foreign Object in the First Degree, Sexual Abuse in the First Degree, Sodomy in the Third Degree, Rape in the Third Degree, andSexual Abuse in the Third Degree in the state of Oregon. Busschau was released pending trial,but fled before his next court appearance and failed to appear before the court on October 4, 1993. On February 1, 1994, a Clackamas County, Oregon, grand jury indicted Busschau for Failure to Appear in the first degree and an arrest warrant was issued for Busschau on February 3, 1994. On October 18, 1994,a federal Unlawful Flight to Avoid Prosecution warrant was issued for Busschau in the United States District Court, District of Oregon, Portland, Oregon. Based on investigating agencies, it is advised to contact your Local FBI Office or US Consulate at www.fbi.gov/contact-us/field-offices/ if you have any information on the whereabouts of Barrett Busschau.
Also any news-related updates on this case can be forwarded to us at amwfans.com/thread/1662/website-contact-form-- Thoughts? I checked both newslibrary and newspapers.com and didn't see any previous coverage on the manhunt for Barrett. So kudos to the FBI for giving publicity for this cold case fugitive at last! The only issue is that Barrett is most likely hiding out in his native South Africa, and as we've seen with the lack of results in the manhunt for fellow South African native fugitive Warren Stern, catching him there isn't going to be easy. Hopefully something can be worked out between the US and South African governments for the safety of the children in South Africa. Since he had five confirmed victims at just the age of 18, I fear how high the victim total is today. www.fbi.gov/wanted/cac/barrett-preston-busschau |

Remember, they didn't send AMW capture Nelson Yester back for some b.s. reason about not having an interpreter. Unfortunately, there needs to be more cooperation. |

P.S. I'm not trying to make a joke but I honestly thought the first photo was of a female.

Busschau should really be added to the FBI' Ten Most Wanted list as his case would benefit from the list.
First off he's a long running fugitive for crimes against CHILDREN.
Second he's still fairly young being born in 1975 at 42 years old.
Thirdly, he's a fresh addition to the site and this case has been very unheard of by many of us here until he was actually added to the FBI site.
I think he's pretty much in South Africa as he probably wouldn't know where else to flee to at the time since he was just an 18 year old.

There is currently an open slot for a cold case now that Van Wisse has been captured. I think Busschau would make a good fit as well.

I know this is a very touchy subject, but I wanted to bring this up since I read a lot of history as well and since Busschau is from South Africa it makes sense. (this also goes for Warren Stern) When Busschau came to the U.S. in 1984 from South Africa, the apartheid regime was in power then and once Busschau went on the run in 1993, that's when the country was turned over to majority rule and it makes me wonder. Since many white South African left the country after 1994 could it be possible that Busschau is no longer there? Or he never fled to South Africa to begin with?

Anything is possible after now 24 years on the run.

I'm curious to know if Busschau has family still living in Oregon or came to the U.S. in 1984 because a family adopted him, as there is no mention of his family or any family members possibly helping him evade capture. Also I think if in South Africa, he's probably working in a rural area as a farmer or ranch hand. Also I did some reading and the last name Busschau has the highest density in the following states: Washington State, Oregon, California and Colorado Site used: Namespedia.com  |

This is a wonderful initiative to locate this individual which includes a $10,000 reward, and this is the second press release in less than a year, I’m curious if they think he’s in the United States still and are considering him as a serious potential FBI Top Ten fugitive in the near future. |

Here’s a game changing theory: There is a possibility that Barrett Busschau may be deceased as he could have been the victim of the attacks on farmers in South Africa since 1994. This theory could be true if it is discovered that he worked as a farmer since he went on the run. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_African_farm_attacks |

Interesting theory, although it would be an extreme long shot lol. The fact that the FBI added him after 24 years would indicate to me they believe he is still alive.

Thanks, I do tend to think Busschau is alive, but what’s troubling about this case is that the country where he was born in and believed to be today underwent significant changes when he went on the run in 1993. South Africa is a much different place today then it was in 1993 and earlier. So he basically could be there or anywhere else in the world. |
