About this Podcast:

Every Monday, a new file opens. FUGITIVE FILES is the true crime podcast covering fugitives on the run from the FBI — from wanted killers and international scammers to cult leaders, con artists, and criminals hiding in plain sight. We break down the manhunts, fake identities, shocking mistakes, near captures, and the investigations that brought them down… or failed to. Some fugitives disappear for decades. Some are still out there. New episodes every Monday. Because the case is never closed. Link to listen: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/fugitive-files/id1896535256
