Mexican authorities have arrested a former U.S. university
professor, who recently was added to the FBI’s 10 most-wanted list and faces
sex crimes charges in the Philippines.
Sixty-four year-old Walter Lee Williams was arrested in the
southern beach resort of Playa del Carmen. The FBI said he was an anthropology
and gender studies professor at the University of Southern California until
2011.
Under the guise of academic research, Williams is believed
to have travelled in the Philippines and elsewhere in Southeast Asia to have
sex with underage boys, according to the FBI. The bureau said it had identified
10 victims between ages 9 and 17.
The Quintana Roo State Attorney General’s office said police
found Williams at a cafe on Tuesday night in the popular resort of Playa Del
Carmen, a short drive from Cancun, which is a popular U.S. vacation
destination. The state attorney general’s office said he had a home in Cancun.
The FBI added Williams to the 10 most-wanted list on Monday.
The bureau was offering a $100,000 reward for information leading directly to
his arrest.
The bureau uses the most-wanted list, which has been in
place since 1950, to draw attention to some of the most dangerous U.S.
fugitives. Over the years 469 fugitives on the list have been caught or
located.
