NOT an FBI Top Ten fugitive[edit]

Some contributions here perpetuate the falsehood that Darren Mack was among the FBI Top Ten. But Mack NEVER attained that status. The FBI merely identified him as a "most wanted fugitive", which they sometimes do, as they profile certain fugitives on their main wanted web page. Apparently this is what Nancy Grace must have seen on July 21, 2006, and so then she falsely implied repeatedly that Mack was a Top Ten Fugitive [1]. But you will see that Mack does not have a corresponding FBI Top Ten sequence number, precisely because he never made it on to that very select FBI list. Please note also that the FBI issued a National Press Release on the actual true next Top Tenner in the correct sequence on September 7, 2006, noting that "Ralph B. Phillips is the 483rd person to be placed on the FBI's "Ten Most Wanted Fugitives" list" [2]. #482 was clearly Warren Steed Jeffs on May 6, 2006. And "Michael Paul Astorga was the 481st person to be placed on the FBI’s “Ten Most Wanted Fugitives” list" [3]. So clearly Mack never made the FBI Top Ten list, despite the Nancy Grace comments. So the Wikipedia pages all now need to be corrected accordingly, as they are in gross error.Steven Russell 01:38, 20 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Thank you for the clarification. Please phrase your language and requests more politely in the future. Thanks. Smee 02:20, 20 March 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Erroneous statement[edit]

The very last statement (sentence) added August 8, 2009 by someone is not only poorly spelled, but absolutely false and should be corrected ASAP. It states that Mack has been freed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.250.113.74 (talk) 03:26, 9 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Lede is too long[edit]

The Lede is too long and contains content that is not covered in the body of the article. Also it seems to promote Mack in some way. The summary of the Lede should keep to the facts and be a shorter account of his crimes, manhunt, etc. Parkwells (talk) 18:03, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
