Mollie Halpern: A convicted sex offender is on the lam, and the FBI is asking for your help to hunt him down. Bruce Sawhill is wanted for allegedly repeating his crime with another victim.

Michael Christian: He has a history of molesting children, and as long as he’s out on the street, he’s going to continue to be a danger.

Halpern: I’m Mollie Halpern of the Bureau, and this is Wanted by the FBI. Fifty-nine-year old Bruce Sawhill failed to show up at a Missouri court on charges he molested a 12-year-old girl. He was friends with his alleged victim’s parents.

Special Agent Michael Christian says Sawhill works as a drywaller, is known to drink heavily, and grow marijuana. Agent Christian says people who know Sawhill say…

Christian: He thinks he has a good sense of humor, has a very distinct laugh, and will often laugh at his own jokes.

Halpern: Sawhill was last spotted around Oregon about eight years ago but could be anywhere in the U.S. or Canada. If you have information on his whereabouts, call your local FBI office. To see pictures of Sawhill, visit www.fbi.gov.
