First off I'm voting for Lovci because his coincidence was one of the most memorable and hilarious moments in AMW history. Second I'm voting for Rode and Durant.

Kenneth Norman Lovci defeats King Curly 3 to 1, and Durant defeats Linn-Boston 4 to 0.
Joseph Marshall, #255, Apl 8, 1993
In 1977, he took part in a robbery spree in Cleveland, Ohio. The crime wave ended in a family business grocery store where one of his partners in crime shot a 16 year old girl dead as she rushed to protect her family. Cops rounded up his partners in crime, but Marshall got away. He was busted in California.
vs
Marc Adams, #266, Jly 16, 1993
The notorious part of his criminal history started in the 1970's when he became a serial robber targeting teenagers. In 1979, he shot at 3 teen boys in Modesto, California. The casualty toll was 1 dead, 1 wounded, 1 unharmed. The policeman who responded to the scene was the mortal victim's uncle. In 1986, he escaped from the infamous San Quentin prison, one of the only criminals to manage this feat. Starting in 1987, he'd lived as a model citizen of Puerto Rico for about 6 years before AMW tipsters busted him. A few years later, he died in a prison fight.
and
Arvis Michael Sexton, #230, Oct 26, 1992
A convicted robber and attempted murderer. In Charlotte, North Carolina, he shot and killed his girlfriend and her brother. He was busted in Jacksonville, Florida.
vs
Irving Jones, #262, Ags 14, 1993
A drug dealer and paroled armed robber. He told his wife he was reformed, and was hoping to open a bakery. In July 1991, a heated argument boiled over, and he shot her and her cousin to death. He was busted in Brooklyn, New York, attending his mother's funeral.
My votes go to Marc Adams for escaping from San Quentin and Irving Jones who was busted at his own mother's funeral.

Marc Adams and Irving Jones win by a 0 - 4 shut-out!
Robert Joseph Moody, #289, Jnr 5, 1994
A former financial analyst. In autumn 1993, he murdered 2 women in Tucson, Arizona over 2 weeks, then tied up his family and stole their car to flee a month later. He went to Orange County, California and claimed he was suffering from amnesia, and an AMW viewer recognized him.
vs
David Connell Cox, #275, Nvb 19, 1993
In the first Unknown homicide case without even an alias solved by AMW, a 14 year old runaway girl named Naomi McMahill was murdered in 1981, and her body was found buried in a cement culvert on a rural Oregon road. AMW tipsters identified Connell-Cox as the killer, and he was busted in the northern highlands of California. He was reduced to hearing aides and crutches by the time he was busted. He may have died in an Ontario, Oregon correctional facility in the winter of 2011.
and
James Henry Hampton, #237, Dcb 20, 1992
In August 1992, he broke into a home in Missouri and tied up a couple in a failed extortion plot. He then kidnapped and murdered the woman. He killed another woman about a month later in September 1992. He was busted in West Orange, New Jersey within 5 months of the murders. He shot himself in the head but survived, only to be condemned to death. He was executed in March 2000.
vs
Donald Ray Gideon, #257, Jly 17, 1993
A former youthful offender, who made a failed attempt to rape a woman back when he was 12 years old. In 1982, he raped another woman. In June 1993, he raped 2 more women, then sexually murdered one last victim. After his airing on AMW, he surrendered in Volusia County, Florida.
My votes go to David Connell Cox for the cold case murder of a child, and Donald Ray Gideon for a long series of sex crimes that started in his childhood and eventually escalated to sexual murder.

It's unanimous again! Connell-Cox and Gideon shut out Moody and Hampton 0 to 4
Armando "Scarface" Garcia, Toribio Dagoberto Garcia, and Victor Zapata, #279/#280/#282, Jnr 18, 1994/Jnr 26, 1994
The last of the corrupt police crew and drug racketeers The Miami River Cops. In July 1985, Armando "Scarface" Garcia stormed 2 ships with cocaine aboard. Three guards dove into the river and drowned, for which Scarface was charged with 3 counts of murder. Over the next 2 years, Scarface and Toribio conspired to kill government witnesses, but the contract hit plot failed. Scarface and Toribio were busted in Cali, Columbia 5 years after Scarface was named to the FBI's Ten Most Wanted. Less than a week later, Victor Zapata surrendered in Puerto Rico.
vs
Juannito A "JC Jiles" Edwards, #240, Jnr 25, 1993
The first Unknown homicide solved by AMW. In February 1990, a mysterious man, previously known only as "JC Jiles", answered a Mercedes Benz classified ad, in the pretense of taking it for a test drive. Instead, he kidnapped, robbed, and fatally shot the seller. In February 1991, he killed a woman in another robbery. At the time AMW aired his case, all they had was a sketch considered "awful" in one America's Most Wanted related book, and the alias "JC Jiles". An AMW tipster knew his real name, Juannito Edwards, and busted him in Newport News, Virginia.
and
George Hardebeck, #271, Oct 26, 1993
In August 1993, he shot up his family on a Ripley, Indiana farm after a heated argument. He killed his mother, two of his brothers, his sister, and his sister's husband for a total of 5 dead. 2 to 2 1/2 months later, he was flushed out of a barn in Kentucky in which he hid.
vs
Cesar Barone, #249, April 20, 1993
From April 1991 to January 1993, he sexually murdered 4 women in Oregon. He may have sexually murdered a 5th victim, an elderly former neighbor, in Florida. He was busted in Oregon, the same state where he committed most of his crimes. He was condemned to death, but in December 2009 he died of natural causes.
I'll have to get back to you on my votes.

Holy crap!!!!! This is my toughest vote in the history of all contests! I debated flipping a coin for the first vote- but that's the easy way out.  It comes to which is more impressive- a triple capture of cops in a foreign country or a sketch with an alias. In the end, I decided JC Giles capture had the higher degree of difficulty. As hard as it is to capture cops let alone in a foreign country at least we knew who they were. JC Giles was a complete needle in haystack and the random right person at the right time. So my vote goes to him. As for the second vote, Barone had possibly as many victims in a more prolonged period time who were sexually assaulted as well. There was no telling if he would ever stop. Hardebeck's crime as terrible as it was, was one incident. So that is why my vote is for Barone. Wow! |

Once again we have two very difficult matchups that justify the need for AMW, The Hunt or a similar type of show. For the first round I will vote for the Miami River Cops since they were three corrupt Miami officers at a time when the city was under extreme violence, three people were dead and after several years on the FBI Top Ten list, Armando along with Toribio became the only AMW direct captures in Colombia. I loved the moment from his final justice segment where the Colombian officer was arresting Armando and Armando tried to bribe the officer, the officer replied "You're the corrupt cop, not me". For the second round, I'm voting for Cesar Barone for the same reasons as Scumhunter. |

I'll cast my votes for Armando "Scarface" Garcia and Cesar Barone, and they'll advance to Round 3.
Kenneth Norman Lovci, #245, Mrc 20, 1993
A former reserve cop. He molested a 10 year old boy in Rollingwood, Texas. An AMW tipster in Salt Lake City, Utah, recognized him as the new replacement for a murdered restaurant cook whose killer was profiled on the same broadcast, and thus AMW busted him. The previous cook's killer was shortly nabbed as an empty capture.
vs
Jeanne Hayes Siffin Rode and Donald Anthony Durant, #293/#294, Dcb 17/Dcb 16, 1993
In 1972, Durant shot a Cleveland, Ohio businessman to death in a failed robbery. He was implicated in 1983. For the following decade, he committed several burglaries and thefts in Nevada. Siffin-Rode failed to appear in court for carrying a concealed weapon, and helped Durant escape more than 10 police agencies. They were busted about 24 hours apart in Tucson, Arizona.
and
Marc Adams, #266, Jly 16, 1993
The notorious part of his criminal history started in the 1970's when he became a serial robber targeting teenagers. In 1979, he shot at 3 teen boys in Modesto, California. The casualty toll was 1 dead, 1 wounded, 1 unharmed. The policeman who responded to the scene was the mortal victim's uncle.

Starting in 1987, he'd lived as a model citizen of Puerto Rico for about 6 years before AMW tipsters busted him. A few years later, he died in a prison fight.
vs
Irving Jones, #262, Ags 14, 1993
A drug dealer and paroled armed robber. He told his wife he was reformed, and was hoping to open a bakery. In July 1991, a heated argument boiled over, and he shot her and her cousin to death. He was busted in Brooklyn, New York, attending his mother's funeral.
For my votes, more convincing arguments are needed.
