MOST WANTED FUGITIVE
CAPTURED
Victoria Michelle Cravitz and her common-law husband, Leon Henry Shaw are wanted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation for sexual molestation of children ages 6-17 years-old occurring between December 1989 and February 1999. In January 2000, the Circuit Court for the State of Ore., issued arrest warrants for Cravitz after filing charges of one count of sodomy in the first degree, three counts of rape in the first-degree, along with Shaw who was charged with two counts of sodomy in the first degree, four counts of sex abuse, five counts of rape in the first degree, six counts of
felony possession of a firearm, and obstruction of Governmental Administration. In October 2000, federal arrest warrants were issued for the couple in the United States District Court, Medford, Ore., after both were charged with unlawful flight from prosecution.
Cravitz was born August 22, 1961, and described as a white female, 5' 1" height, approximately 108 lbs, with blue eyes and brown graying hair. In her earlier years, Cravitz worked as an exotic dancer.
Cravitz is known to travel with Shaw, who is an artist that paints, sketches and carves Native American art. They could possibly frequent art shows and flea markets selling Shaw's art.
Also using the name Tammy Cravitz, she has ties to OR, CA, WA, AK, MA and British Columbia, Canada.
Cravitz should be considered armed and dangerous.
Victoria Cravitz was living under the name of Jennifer Larsen in Chatham, Washington County, Mississippi. Leon Shaw became ill and passed away of natural causes at a local hospital. When attempting to get a death certificate, questions about his true identity alarmed citizens who contacted the FBI.
"This is a great example of how the FBI coordinate between field offices across the United states to ensure that there is no escape from the law, said Christopher Freeze, special agent in charge of the FBI in Mississippi. "We appreciate the citizens of Washington County that helped bring some finality to this horrific crime."
Cravitz was arrested on July 25, 2018.
