William Troy Stanson- Michigan- 2015 (CAPTURED!!!!)

An article has come out in advance of the In Pursuit profile next Wednesday giving more details on the manhunt:

-In November 2014, Stanson was accused of being inappropriate with teenage girls during a Halloween party.

-The story does not end there. As Stanson was awaiting sentencing for the November 2014 incident, his daughter, who was only 15-years-old at the time, came to the police and stated Stanson had been sleeping with her for the past several years. Stanson fled while police were investigating this new potential case.

-Stanson attempted to cross the border into Canada in 2015, and Canada refused him because he’s a convicted sex offender.

I know of all us on this site hate child molesters in general, but I also know our blood boils even more when the victim is the offender's own child or relative. I know Callahan is going to do a great job investigating this and I hate to say I'm "looking" forward to something so awful, but I am looking forward to hopefully getting justice after the airing.

Yeah, In Pursuit is doing a great job at picking the worst of the worst child molestation cases for season 2, although I wish it wasn't something I had to praise them for, but hopefully they get some direct captures for the victims.

I must say- I am often disgusted with child molesters shown on The Hunt, In Pursuit, etc..- but it takes a lot to shock to me- and Stanson is by far one of the most shocking child crime cases I've seen on these shows

The Halloween party was bad enough- he gave the teenage girls alcohol then played a sick truth or dare game with them- asking for them to rub his feet- grind on them etc... but then to learn he was allegedly molesting Kayla since she was only 4 years old! And got her pregnant and forced her to have an abortion as well. And he had the nerve to tell the Detective he "gave her what she wanted"!

I've said on this forum I'm not a fighter and don't pretend to be, I just like to see bad guys receive justice but even I feel inspired enough to want to kick this guy's a** if I ever see him.

What's scary here is usually child molestation fugitives deny- claim innocence- oh they're making it up. Stanson allegedly admitted to EVERYTHING he was accused of and acted like it was no big deal. That is the classic definition of a sociopath.

I also don't buy that he committed suicide despite the tapes left behind, and the Marshals did state they tracked Stanson to California and then Arizona after he was denied entry into Mexico. (Edit: Sorry, I meant to say Canada, not Mexico).

Another important clue is they say he walks with a limp as a result of a gunshot wound.

OMG I'm so sorry I meant to say CANADA- not Mexico! I don't know whether he tried to get into Mexico or not, it was just force of habit so many fugitives flee to Mexico it always gets stuck in my mind.

YES!!! As I alluded to in the upcoming thread, I knew this was likely already based on a Spanish-language article but wanted to hold off in case of coincidence since they called him "William" only.

Regardless of that, American language articles are calling it a direct capture!

This is also what can we call Callahan's first capture! (There hadn't been a capture yet from Cal's segments, and I complained it was because they kept giving him difficult cold cases to work with, they finally started giving Cal more recent cases and voila!

P.S. Ironically, I accidentally said he fled to Mexico instead of Canada and then he fled to Mexico after all.

Fantastic news to hear about this direct capture! I actually managed to see his episode on Saturday so I'm really glad this alleged POS is in custody and cannot harm any more children.

A special thanks goes once again to the audience in Mexico for helping to fight back against fugitives fleeing to their country.

Updates:

Stanson has pleaded guilty to contempt of court charges and sentenced to 93 days in jail.

Stanson is still facing new charges, including four counts of criminal sexual contact.

Stanson will be sentenced on his original charge of sexual assault and accosting of a minor on March 30th at 1:30 p.m.
