Paul Merle Eischeid 36, was a Charles Schwab stockbroker before he joined the Hells Angels motorcycle gang in Phoenix, Ariz.

Paul Merle Eischeid 36, was a Charles Schwab stockbroker before he joined the Hells Angels motorcycle gang in Phoenix, Ariz.He is wanted in connection with the savage beating and stabbing death of a Phoenix woman in 2001, a murder believed to have been committed by several members of the notorious gang.



Cynthia Garcia, 44, was intoxicated when she “mouthed off” to some Hells Angels at their clubhouse in Mesa, Ariz., where she would routinely hang out, according to reports. She was assaulted by some members and warned to keep quiet about it. When she refused, she was viciously attacked, beaten and stabbed. The attackers then threw Garcia into the trunk of a car and drove to a remote location of the desert, where they continued to stab the woman as she lay dying.
It was one of the most grisly murders in recent American criminal history, U.S. Marshals service director John F. Clark said of the crime.Two years later, Eischeid was one of 50 Hells Angels members and associates nabbed in a sweep of motorcycle gang violence in Phoenix. Although he was implicated in Garcia’s kidnapping and murder, a judge allowed him to be released on bail to await trial because he was holding a steady job as a stockbroker and had a relatively clean criminal record, America’s Most Wanted reported.But after his release, Eischeid somehow removed the tracking device he was ordered to wear, and he fled. He hasn’t been heard from since.
Eischeid is now a fugitive, believed to be roaming the country with help from his Hells Angels cronies. He was added to the Marshals’ list of top 15 most wanted last year.“He bounces around from location to location wherever there is a [Hells Angels] member that is willing to take him in,” Deputy U.S. Marshal Matt Hershey said.
The U.S. Marshals have not ruled out the possibility that Eischeid is in another country, as his last confirmed sighting places him in Calgary, Canada, last year. Canadian immigration authorities have since issued a warrant for his arrest.
Eischeid blends in easily due to his appearance, which he cares a lot about. He is well groomed, works out often and is rarely seen without clean clothes, according to Hershey. He is extremely talented with finances, and could be working as an online trader.One conspicuous characteristic of Eischeid’s appearance is his torso, arms and back, which are covered in colorful tattoos.“[His body] is hard to cover up,” Hershey said.Eischeid, who also goes by the name Jason Daniel, is a white male, 5-foot-7 and 190 pounds, with blue eyes and brown hair. His last name is tattooed across his stomach, and “Hell 666 Bound” is on his lower back. He may be wearing glasses.

FBI doubles reward for 'most wanted' fugitive James "Whitey" Bulger


FBI doubles reward for 'most wanted' fugitive James "Whitey" Bulger
The FBI has doubled to £1 million the reward for information leading to the capture of a notorious Mob fugitive last seen in Britain. James "Whitey" Bulger, a Boston Irish mobster, has been on the run for 13 years and has been charged with 19 murders.
After Osama bin Laden, Bulger - head of Boston's feared Winter Hill Gang - is regarded as America's most wanted fugitive and was an inspiration for the Oscar-winning thriller The Departed.Now 78, the convicted bank robber and government informant was last seen in Piccadilly Circus in September 2002.The FBI went to Italy last year after a man and woman resembling Bulger and his girlfriend were captured on video footage but they turned out to be Germans.The pair have avoided the authorities since 1995 when they vanished after Bulger was tipped off by a former FBI agent that he was about to be charged with racketeering.
The FBI believed he fled America before 2001 and has been living under a false passport and alias, surviving off millions of dollars secreted in bank safety deposit boxes.Unconfirmed sightings were subsequently reported as far apart as Canada, South America, Europe and Thailand.Bulger, who is balding, had links with corrupt federal agents while his brother led the Massachusetts Senate for nearly 20 years.He was the inspiration for Frank Costello, the Boston crime lord played by Jack Nicholson in The Departed."I am confident that he will be captured," Warren Bamford, special agent in charge of the FBI's Boston office, said on Thursday.
Mr Bamford said the FBI would issue a new "Top Ten" wanted poster with new Bulger head shots to its 56 field offices in the United States and 60 offices around the world.
