National roundup nets more than 35,000 fugitives

Thursday, July 9, 2009

(07-09) 09:53 PDT Chicago (AP) --

More than 35,000 fugitives have been captured as part of a monthlong national operation that targeted violent criminals, gang members and sex offenders.

At a news conference Thursday morning, federal officials in Chicago said the number is a record for the so-called "Operation Falcon," which has been conducted annually since 2005.

They say 19,000 fugitives were captured during the operation last year.

The U.S. Marshals Service credits the dramatic jump to cooperation among local, state and federal law enforcement agencies.

5. That's who they need to be concentrating on
that's for gawd damn sure. The rich class have been given a big hand out by their not being charged for the crimes they've commited. Somehow it is not legal for them to rip us off and that's exactly whats been going on.

4. I don't get it. Do they hold off on capturing them until this month rolls around? Seems to me they
should be rounding them up 12 months a year.
