This FBI file concerns the 2005 effort to locate Joseph Edward Duncan III after Minnesota authorities sought him on charges of second-degree criminal sexual conduct and attempted second-degree criminal sexual conduct. The Minneapolis Minnesota Violent Crime Fugitive Task Force opened a preliminary inquiry and pursued a federal unlawful flight to avoid prosecution warrant after developing evidence of interstate flight. Released records include an NCIC activity log, a state warrant, FBI case-opening material, a June 2005 lead bulletin with photographs and descriptive information, and instructions to FBI offices in Seattle, Kansas City, Fargo, Las Vegas, and Sacramento to locate and apprehend him. The documents describe Duncan as armed and dangerous, note prior sexual-conduct arrests, and include a receipt for interview notes obtained in July 2005.
