Ever since I first heard about and saw some online episodes, I've been interested in the original 1995-1996 run of the syndicated series, AMW: Final Justice. Most of the content was about the resolution of cases after they were profiled on AMW, however there were some unresolved cases also aired (ex. Paul Wong, Joseph Quarteri, Alvaro Alvarado, Carl Alfred Eder, etc). What I'm most surprised about is that for a show that had somewhere around 130 episodes (only 65 were rebroadcast with updated graphics in 2001/2004), there's hardly any decent information about it online.
The only two episode listings I've ever found about the show are from the msn.tv and Tv Guide websites. The msn.tv listings are in chronological order but most of them don't have much detail. The TV Guide ones have more detail, but usually only mention one aired case per episode, and aren't in chronological order (which made it a pain to go through each listing).
So going through TV Guide, this is my attempt at putting a name to each case listed (since it's always interesting to find out about old cases on AMW, even if they were indirect captures) And these are going in order from up to down. Any information on any of these descriptions would be awesome.

1: An update on a fugitive accused of a 1989 double murder in Brownstown, Wash.
Note: Brownstown, Washington is a small unincorporated community, so you would think there would be something on this story online.
2: A profile of a fugitive suspected of murdering a 9-year-old girl in 1983. Dennis Melvin Howe, was re-featured in 2001.
3: A profile of a fugitive accused of murdering five members of his family in 1976, including his mother, wife and three children. William Bradford Bishop, was re-featured in 2001.
4: A report on a 1991 Jane Doe murder case in Florida; a profile of a California teen missing since September 1994.
I'm pretty sure the Jane Doe case was Valentine's Jane Doe, and the other case is most likely Patricia "Candy" Walsh, both were re-featured in 2001 but not on the same episode.
5: A profile of an ex-boxer convicted of murders in New York City. Pedro Estrada, was re-featured in 2001.
