FBI, DEA, State Department, even the Environmental Protection Agency and the US Postal Service
all have their own most wanted criminals, and these are some of the worst home-grown
criminals you might be living next door to.
Jason Derek Brown Wanted by: FBI
Jason Derek Brown is wanted by the FBI for the murder of an amored card guard in 2004.
Waiting in ambush outside a movie theater, Brown shot the guard while money was being
loaded onto the vehicle, then fled with the stolen cash.
Brown speaks fluent french and has a penchant for showing off his money.
According to the FBI, Brown habitually frequented nightclubs and flaunted his wealth- probably
because his personality sucks and he had no other way of attracting women.
A wanted man- by the FBI, not women- Brown is still on the run and is believed to be
armed and dangerous.
He has family ties to California, Arizona, and Utah where he's believed to frequent.
He might also be in your local ER after the absolute roasting Infographics just served
him.
If you come across Brown, the FBI is offering a $200,000 reward for information leading
to his arrest.
Erik Flores Elortegui Wanted by: Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and
Firearms
Erik Flores Elortegui is wanted by the ATF for making false statements in connection
with the acquisition of firearms and for smuggling weapons.
Indicted in 2015, Elortegui was busted in connection with a Mexican military operation
that discovered assault rifles, pistols, and even .50 caliber rifles along with thousands
of rounds of ammunition, all smuggled into Mexico from the US.
Shortly after his indictment Elortegui is believed to have fled the country, and is
likely residing in Mexico where he probably has strong cartel affiliations.
Rafael Caro Quintero Wanted by: DEA, FBI
A notorious Mexican drug lord, Rafael Caro Quintero was arrested after the torture and
murder of an American DEA undercover agent in 1985.
After bribing a police chief, Quintero fled to Costa Rica, where he was later arrested
and extradited back to Mexico.
For his crimes, Quintero was sentenced to 40 years in prison- until his sudden and unexpected
release in 2013 after serving 28 years.
Released on a technicality and totally not due to corruption or bribes, a state judge
ruled that Quintero was improperly tried in a federal courtroom for state-level crimes,
and thus released Quintero with little warning after having completed the sentence for his
state-level crimes.
The move prompted outrage from the United States and federal Mexican prosecutors.
Quintero however has not been seen since his release, despite an extensive manhunt by Mexican
marines.
Today it's believed Quintero is once more a part of the drug trade, and the United States
is offering a $20 million bounty for information leading to his arrest.
Ayman al-Zawahiri Wanted by: FBI, US State Department
Ayman al-Zawahiri is the current leader of the mostly defunct al-Qaeda terrorist group.
Indicted by the US for his role in the 1998 US embassy bombings in Kenya and Tanzania,
which killed 224 and injured 5,000 others, al-Zawahiri is also believed to have helped
plan and coordinate both the USS Cole attack in 2000, and the September 11th, 2001 attacks.
al-Qa'ida's abilities to operate has been seriously curtailed thanks to huge international
counterterrorism pressure on the group, yet al-Zawahiri is still engaged in attempts to
recruit, train, and plan attacks against the US and other western nations.
For his roles in past terror attacks and continued leadership of al-Qaeda, al-Zawahiri is wanted
by the United States Government, which has placed a $25 million bounty on his head.
Richard Bauder Wanted by: Environmental Protection Agency
(use photos from
Richard Bauder is wanted by the Environmental Protection Agency for conspiracy to defraud
the United States, commit wire fraud, and violate the Clean Air Act.
As an executive with automobile manufacturer Audi, Bauder along with three other executives
plotted ways to cheat US emissions testing starting in 2006.
Audi was unable to design a vehicle that could meet US diesel emission standards and include
a sufficiently large AdBlue tank- a fluid which is injected into diesel exhaust to reduce
the amount of nitrogen oxide emitted by the vehicle.
Instead, Bauder in conjunction with other Audi executives, plotted a way to cheat US
emissions testing.
When an Audi vehicle underwent emissions testing, the AdBlue tank would automatically dose the
exhaust with higher levels than normal, thus fooling the testers into believing the vehicle
met emissions standards during operation.
Bauder's conspiracy to cheat the Clean Air Act resulted in the addition of millions of
tons of nitrogen oxide into the atmosphere, all because Audi wanted a larger trunk with
a nice speaker system.
We're not kidding- that's literally the reason the company turned to cheating instead of
simply building a larger AdBlue tank.
Sandjar Agzamov Wanted by: Immigration and Customs Enforcement,
FBI
Sandjar Agzamov is wanted by Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the FBI in conjunction
with a modern day slave ring and human trafficking.
In 2005 US law enforcement became aware of a possible human trafficking ring in Kansas
City, Missouri.
The investigation centered on a labor service business named Giant Labor Solutions, which
offered laborers for various industrial and residential projects.
For four years GLS was investigated by a taskforce comprised of various state and federal organizations,
resulting in a sting that captured Abrorkhodja Askarkhodjaev along with numerous other senior
members of a large-scale human trafficking and slave labor ring.
The ring preyed on recent legal and illegal immigrants, coercing or sometimes even forcing
them to work under slave-like conditions.
Sandjar Agzamov managed to avoid capture by US authorities and fled the country.
Today he is believed to be residing in his native Uzbekistan.
Derrel Brown Wanted by: US Marshals
Recently put on the US Marshals most-wanted list, Derrel Demon Brown is wanted on charges
of receiving and concealing a stolen firearm and two counts of homicide.
On March 13, 2019, Brown murdered his girlfriend, Cherletta Baber-Bey, and her 25-year-old niece,
Keyona Griffin.
On a search of the house, police found the murder weapon, a stolen firearm, and evidence
that Brown had committed the double homicide.
Police believe that he has been helped in his flight from the law by family in Wisconsin,
Arizona, Georgia, and Ohio.
For information leading to his arrest, the US Marshals are offering a reward of $25,000.

Amongst the charges still being pursued are unlawful entry into the US Capitol building,
destruction of property, assaulting law enforcement personnel, and targeting members of the media
for assault.

Oudit Narain Seenarain Wanted by: Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and
Firearms
Oudit Narain Seenarain was arrested in 2005 for federal firearms trafficking charges,
but upon making bail failed to make his court appearance.
Discovered attempting to smuggle firearms to his native Guyana, Seenarain also faces
charges in Georgia for assault, and intent to distribute controlled substances- cocaine,
ketamine, and ecstasy- as well as receiving stolen property.
Despite petitioning for his successful removal from Interpol's wanted criminal list, the
US Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms is still looking for any leads that could
lead to his arrest.
A raid of his home in Guyana by local authorities discovered unspecified illegal items, and
led to brief cooperation between US and Guayan authorities in an attempt to capture the fugitive.
Attempts have remained unsuccessful however.
Ismael “El Mayo” Zambada-Garcia Wanted by: DEA
Ismael Zambada, nicknamed “El Mayo”, is a Mexican drug lord and leader of the Sinaloa
Cartel.
Starting as a small-time thug, Zambada began his criminal career by smuggling a few kilos
at a time over the US border.
Zambada very quickly made a name for himself, and consolidated power, eventually rising
to leadership of the Sinaloa cartel.
In 2006, the administration of Mexican president Felipe Calderon began a massive offensive
on Mexico's drug cartels, hitting the Tijuana cartel especially hard, as it was the largest
at the time.
This weakening of the dominant cartel encouraged Zambada and others to encroach on Tijuana
territory, leading to all-out cartel war.
Today Zambada is 73 years old and suffering from diabetes.
For information leading to his arrest, the Drug Enforcement Agency is offering a $5 million
reward.
Hafiz Saeed Wanted by: US State Department

of being the mastermind behind various terrorist attacks.

million reward for information leading to Saeed's arrest.
