Join us as we start 2021 with a series by Loren! Grab a chair and get comfy because for the next few months, Loren will be covering some dangerously fascinating women.

Of this lengthy list, there is a rather surprisingly small number of women. Over the next few months, Loren will be going backwards from current day until she reaches the original- Ruth Eisemann-Schier- in 1968.

But before we get to Ruth, we have to start in current times. 

On April 6, 2016, Brenda Delgado was added to the list for the orchestration and execution of a murder-for-hire scheme. A jilted (in her mind) former flame, Brenda was out for revenge against her twice ex-boyfriend's new love, Kendra Hatcher- a pediatric dentist in Dallas, Texas. 

Brenda Delgado is the 506th person to have been added to the list and only the 9th woman to have made the dangerous cut.

The FBI has had a "Ten Most Wanted Fugitives" list since March 14, 1950, when a reporter for the International News Service (now the United Press International) asked the FBI for names and descriptions of the "toughest guys" the Bureau would like to capture.

What no one could have anticipated was the publicity that such a list would create. The list generated so much interest that the late FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover implemented the "Ten Most Wanted Fugitives" program.

This program is designed to publicize particularly dangerous fugitives who might not otherwise merit nationwide attention. The FBI recognizes the need for public assistance in tracking fugitives and since its inception, 162 of the “Ten Most Wanted Fugitive” apprehensions have been the result of citizen recognition of publicity from this program.
