During the last “Who Wants to Pummel a Millionaire” celebrity show, Kato showed up as the moral support for Jon Stewart. Weird.

The FBI are still looking for him, but many agents regard him as “missing, presumed dead”. or reasons they don’t explain. 😕

Eric Robert Rudolph is supposedly still hiding in the woods right near my house. I live in Asheville, North Carolina. The abortion clinic in Asheville was bombed about a year ago but Rudolph is not suspected.

Eric Robert Rudolph is still on the FBI’s ten most wanted list. Million dollar reward to find him.

Don’t know about Lorena, but John Wayne Bobbit was last seen starring in a series of Porn films!? (Go figure… He gets his most vital organ chopped, stolen, discarded, found, stiched back, and then decides to give it a test run for all to see)

I think that’s mostly wishful thinking, because it’s REALLY embarassing that he managed to evade such a thorough manhunt.

He’s probably dead by now. I mean, Nuremburg was what, 55 years ago?
