## Resource

Today (amongst Heated rivalry chatter), we're talking the FBI's most wanted! The list, which is more publicity than anything, was started by who else but J. Edgar Hoover! We highlight three current fugatives who go in and out of the top ten. Crypto Queen Ruja Ignatova ran a scam called OneCoin - then she boarded a RyanAir flight and disappeared! Crappy husband Robert William Fisher murdered his family in Scottsdale, AZ - he then blew up the house and escaped into a national forest (we're hoping he's dead in a cave somewhere). And! Canadian Olympic Snowboarder Ryan James Wedding went from competing on the slopes to running Mexico's biggest cartel. He's scary.
