America's Most Wanted joins hunt for Ontario fugitive

The hunt for an Ontario man wanted in three killings is reaching a U.S. audience through the website of the popular crime show America's Most Wanted. A profile of Jesse Imeson, 22, was displayed on the website's front page Thursday, with a description of the crimes and a number of photographs of the suspect. The show's producer says the case may be profiled on a future show. "Any time somebody's on the run and fleeing justice, it attracts our attention," show producer Paula Simpson told the Canadian Press from Washington, D.C. "This is particularly heinous, because not just one person has been killed, but now three." The search for Imeson began late last week after the body of a Windsor, Ont., bartender was found Thursday in a room Imeson rented at a boarding house. Carlos Rivera, 25, had died of strangulation. Several days later, William Regier, 72, and his wife Helene, 73, were found dead in their farmhouse in the small rural community of Dashwood, near the eastern shore of Lake Huron. Imeson is wanted for first-degree murder for all three killings. Ontario Provincial Police told a local newspaper they welcomed the attention and hoped it would help them find the suspect. The crime show's website boasts its viewers have helped catch 954 fugitives to date. Forty-nine Canada-related criminal cases have been profiled on the site through the years, including the high-profile murder of Alicia Ross of Markham, Ont. Police have repeatedly warned the public that Imeson is considered armed, dangerous and unpredictable. Wednesday evening, a green Ford Taurus sought in connection with the investigation was found in dense bush near the village of Zurich, about 100 kilometres northwest of London and about 12 kilometres north of the Regier's town. The vehicle had been stolen from the area of Monday's killing. Police are still searching for a grey GMC Sierra pickup truck that belonged to the Regiers.

I find it actually funny when your or our criminals try and cross the borders..... both countries always throw them back when they are found.

This is more of a Heads up then a debate, unless someone can think of something to debate about on this.

Suspect in 3 slayings to be flown to Ontario

A 22-year-old man captured in Quebec will be flown to Ontario Wednesday to face first-degree murder charges in the slayings of three people. Jesse Imeson was captured late Tuesday in a wooded area near the Quebec-Ontario border after a manhunt that lasted nearly two weeks. He was wanted in connection with the July killings of a Windsor bartender and an elderly couple from the Lake Huron community of Dashwood. Quebec provincial police said Imeson broke into a cottage in Portage-du-Fort, west of Ottawa and near the Ontario border. Dale Lewis, who owns a cottage next door, told CBC News he spotted a suspicious man inside a neighbour's cottage around 7:30 p.m. Tuesday night and went to get a closer look. Once on his neighbour's porch, Lewis heard the television from inside the cottage and peered in the window, but couldn't see anything. "I walked around to the back window, and as I looked, a figure jumped behind the centre post in his living room," he said. At the time, Lewis said he thought he had cornered a local burglar responsible for a string of recent break-ins in the area. He quietly backed away from the cottage and ran to another neighbour, a retired Ottawa police officer, and the two contacted police. "He did the right thing," Sgt. Michel Brunet told CBCNews.ca from Quebec police headquarters in Montreal. "We had told people not to do anything because of the danger, and phone police. That's what he did. "He gave us very good information." Quebec police called Ontario Provincial Police, who quickly surrounded the area, aided by helicopters and police dogs. Police from both provinces had Imeson surrounded by 8:45 p.m., Brunet said. Imeson, armed with two rifles, surrendered peacefully. "He had nowhere to go," Brunet said. Imeson was being held in Campbell's Bay, Que., on Wednesday morning. Lead investigators from the Ontario Provincial Police were expected to arrive by OPP plane at Arnprior Airport, west of Ottawa, at 10:45 ET and will then have the arrest warrant endorsed in Quebec, said Renfrew OPP Constable Cathy Lindsey. The officers will travel to Campbell's Bay to pick up Imeson. He will then be flown to London, Ont. Investigators have scheduled a news conference in London at 3 p.m. ET. Couple's pickup truck found in area Imeson was captured near the area where a stolen pickup truck connected to the killings was found. Police said the 2006 GMC Sierra, found in the woods near Renfrew, Ont., belonged to William and Helene Regier, who were found dead in their farmhouse on July 23. Police believe their killer drove the couple's truck 600 kilometres to the Renfrew area. Along with the Regier slayings, Imeson was also sought in the death of bartender Carlos Rivera, 25. Rivera's body was found July 19 in a room Imeson rented at a boarding house in Windsor. A Canada-wide warrant was issued for Imeson's arrest for three counts of first-degree murder, with the U.S. TV program America's Most Wanted joining in the manhunt last week by listing Imeson as a top fugitive on its website.

Well it took a while, but was taken care of.

I'm impressed with the amount of information provided in this report considdering he was just arrested.... and the steps used to take him was pretty good too.....

Out at a cottage and only took a little over an hour from visual contact to actual surrounding by officials.... pretty fast all things considdering.
