FBI announces $10,000 reward for information that leads to arrest of escaped men
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (KMIZ)
The FBI announced in a Tuesday press release that it’s offering a reward of up to $10,000 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of two men who escaped federal custody last week.
This reward is in addition to the $5,000 amount offered by the U.S. Marshals.
Trevor Sparks and Sergio Perez Martinez escaped Dec. 5 from the Cass County Jail. Police didn't realize they were missing until the next morning, according to a Dec. 8 press release.
The FBI said in a press release that it doesn’t believe the two men are traveling together. They are considered armed and dangerous.
Sparks, 33, was convicted Nov. 7 by a federal trial jury for leading a criminal conspiracy linked to two murders and multiple violent assaults, and which distributed at least a kilogram of methamphetamine every day for nearly a year in the Kansas City, Springfield, St. Joseph and St. Louis areas.
He was found guilty of one count of conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine, one count of participating in a money-laundering conspiracy, one count of possessing firearms in relation to a drug-trafficking crime, and one count of being a felon in possession of firearms and ammunition.
Martinez, 43, pleaded guilty on July 11 in federal court to one count of conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine, and one count of conspiracy to commit money laundering
