Glad you were able to get things working on your end.
Found an episode of an AMW spin off series called Final Justice. It should be up at the Archive link.

^ That FJ episode confirms that missing children Christi and Bobby Baskin were profiled on AMW. That's such a sad case. They were taken from their home by their grandparents who alleged abuse. Police never found evidence of abuse, but they were gone. The now-adult Baskin children were found alive in 2010, but refuse to meet with their parents, believing their grandparents' stories of abuse. It was one of the most popular cases on Unsolved Mysteries, but I didn't know they were on AMW too.
Also really nice to see a profile of James Ashley. Sadly, he's never been caught.

Does anyone know how long it took to capture Donald Gary Fletcher and Lucille Arzell Fletcher?

^ According to an article I found on Newspapers.com, they were found in early 1992, so not long after their profile. It was a routine traffic stop that did them in.

There was a post on Reddit that got removed asking about an animated segment being featured on AMW. Has anyone ever heard of it?
The original post had written
"So back in 2008-2010 somewhere in that range I was watching Americas Most wanted with John Walsh hosting it. They were talking about a case of a man and I guess his grandma and child. Their was this unique but eerie Animation that played along with the story. It was also sung by the man who survived. All I remember is everyone had pale white skin. And the man said at the end of the song before floating back to his family was ,”cause I didn’t die….” Again I’ve searched high and low for this and I can’t find it anywhere"
The poster also mentioned.
"I believe the lady in the animation was voiced by the lady who got killed. I’m not sure"
Does this ring a bell with anyone? Thanks

I have no idea what case that is. It sounds almost like the Bones Jane Doe case, but that one didn't have any animation, and that was a woman, not a man.

I managed to crawl my way towards some pages on the old amw.com website detailing two more broadcasts which I'm not sure whether we ever talked about. They're from June 14, 1997 and December 6, 1997.
6-14-997 is the earliest date I know of when these cases were profiled:
*Forest Anthony "Woody" Roberts and Richard John Martin. They were wanted for flying planes trafficking cocaine for the Cali cartel out of Columbia. I'm not sure if they were affiliated with Robert Todd Welty, a similar fugitive AMW busted back in '994 as Capture #307, but it did mention one of their affiliates had already been captured.
*William Francis Horning. He was wanted for questioning out of St. Louis in a murder for hire scheme in which one woman wanted a bigger inheritance from a man who owned a chain of either hotels, apartments, factories, or mills. At the time, detectives didn't have enough to charge that woman with any crime, but they needed Horning captured first to see if he couldn't prove what role either of them might've had in the murder. Upon further research, I found a page suggesting Horning was still out there.
*The abduction of a child named Cayce McDaniel. I don't know anything else about this one.
On top of a re-airing of the Mickey and Trudy Thompson murder case, there were 4 other fugitives aired on 12-06-997, but the webpage only named the fugitives by last name and first initial, the links to the case overviews didn't work, and further research only proved who one of those was.
*"M Hernandez"
*"G Poole"
*"S. Dedaj". I found out that Simon Dedaj was wanted for 2 murders in circa August of '996, in one of the northeastern states if I recall correctly. He was caught on 1-31-998 as an indirect capture and sentenced to a half century in prison, but there's at least one petition on social media insisting his conviction was wrongful.
*"C Shi".

I know it's been a little while, but I am still keeping an eye out for episodes of Cops and AMW. I recently came across the 10th Anniversary special that aired July 18th 1998. It seems to be mostly complete, but the last bit got cut off. I have just finished uploading it to my channel here. You can also find it on my Archive page here
As always if anyone happens to come across any episodes of Cops please contact me.

You can also find it on my Archive page hereAs always if anyone happens to come across any episodes of Cops please contact me. Here's what I got from the 7-18-998 broadcast. *More details on Captures #511 and #275, detailed in the captures directory. *Sophie David was first profiled on February 14 or 15, 1992, not July as was previously believed. *Heather Catherine Tallchief and Roberto Ignacio Solis were first profiled on 10-26-993. At least I was under the impression they were introduced in April of '997. *Fernando Reynoso was first profiled on 6-03-995, and was still at large by mid-July 1998. *The recording cut off that night's fugitive representing 1997 introductions. *A then-new fugitive named Brian Scott Mayhorn had gone on the run with 3 children named Tyler Brown, Amanda Lee Brown-Palmer, and Wayne Palmer, on 7-13-998. I have no idea whether he was ever captured or the children ever recovered.

Came across another episode. This one is dated December 14th 1990. I believe this is the earliest one I have found so far. Another thing that I thought was a little interesting is that this is either the second or third sort of "official" looking tape I have come across.
The tape was in a black hard plastic case with a label on the case as well as the tape
The episode should up on my archive and YouTube pages shortly.

I saw this in my YouTube notifications! Great work in finding this and thank you for the upload! Stephen Harrington is still a fugitive, unfortunately, and as far as I know, the San Francisco robbery is still unsolved. Leslie Rogge and Richard Church have both been captured, though.
