In 1968, the United States FBI, under Director J. Edgar Hoover, continued for a nineteenth year to maintain a public list of the people it regarded as the Ten Most Wanted Fugitives. The FBI began the year 1968 with almost a clean slate for the top Ten list, as only one Top Tenner Fugitive on the list was a true multi-year long-timer still at large. The remaining nine Fugitives on the list were all from the prior year: * 1965 #203 (three years), John William Clouser remained still at large * 1967 #243 (one year), Monroe Hickson declared deceased by January 30, 1968 * 1967 #246 (one year), Gordon Dale Ervin remained still at large * 1967 #250 (one year), Carmen Raymond Gagliardi arrested December 23, 1968 * 1967 #256 (five months), Jerry Ray James arrested January 24, 1968 * 1967 #257 (four months), Richard Paul Anderson arrested January 19, 1968 * 1967 #258 (four months), Henry Theodore Young arrested January 9, 1968 * 1967 #259 (five months), Donald Eugene Sparks arrested January 24, 1968 * 1967 #260 (one month), Zelma Lavone King arrested January 30, 1968 * 1967 #261 (three months), Jerry Reece Peacock arrested March 5, 1968 Even then, the FBI managed to clear most of this list through arrests very early in the year, and so by year end, the FBI had amazingly listed an additional thirty-two new Fugitives in 1968, by far surpassing the long-standing previous record of twenty-four additions from 1953. The huge number of new listings in 1968 capped a decade-long streak of double-digit additions to the list, and really ended the era of frequent listings and quick captures by the FBI. 1968 also brought the first woman to the list, Ruth Eisemann-Schier, at the end of the year. 1968 also saw the second and third "Special Additions," to the list (temporarily bringing the total wanted Fugitive count to eleven). One was Schier's partner, Gary Stephen Krist, and the other was James Earl Ray, the infamous fugitive assassin of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. ==1968 fugitives== The Ten Most Wanted Fugitives listed by the FBI in 1968 include (in FBI list appearance sequence order): 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「FBI Ten Most Wanted Fugitives by year, 1968」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
