Fugitive Watch is a public-safety media venture established in 1992 by two Bay Area police officers, Steve Ferdin and Scott Castruita. It operates a reality-based television program, a newspaper, and the Fugitive.com website that report on crimes and fugitives. The organization links law enforcement, local businesses, and the community to support crime-fighting efforts. Based in Gilroy, California, it is run by a small team. The program is credited with aiding more than 2,500 captures or solves and has reached audiences through local and national media, including Spanish-language outlets and international programs. It has earned endorsements from California Governor Pete Wilson, the FBI, and the Bay Area chiefs of police and sheriffs.
