Why does a warrant for pot possession put someone on the most wanted list?

Tulsa Man Wanted On Drug Possession Charge

Tulsa Police are seeking a 27-year-old man who is their most wanted suspect for the week. Israel Nkwachukwu Wogu is wanted on a felony warrant for failure to appear on a drug possession charge.

According to arrest records, Wogu was stopped in November of 2011 for driving with a headlight out. When police ran his license, they found he had outstanding warrants and took him into custody.

They discovered marijuana in the car, in a map compartment and a shoe that was lying on the floorboard, the report states.

In addition to the drug charge, Wogu has three outstanding misdemeanor warrants.

Seriously, aren't there serial killers out there that should make the list before this guy?

1. Hey, serial killers are dangerous and the cops aren't about to take

that kind of risk. Railroading kids carries no risk and the back-end profits are great!

2. I nearly stopped watching the local news when the police announced

They were searching for a Wanted Fugitive. I immediately wondered how many fugitives were not wanted since they had to clarify the matter. A little off topic, but perhaps all the other fugitives in Oklahoma aren't wanted right now.

3. Massive resources must be dedicated to apprehend this dangerous criminal!

A task force should be formed and martial law declared.

4. I wonder what those resources could do...

if we were to legalize marijuana and let out prisoners who have been convicted of nothing but pot-related crimes.
