Friday, January 13, 2006 — On Wednesday, January
11, 2006, U.S. fugitive Richard Rightmire turned himself in to members
of the RCMP Kingston Detachment after learning Interpol Ottawa had issued
a news release on the RCMP website
stating he was wanted by Canadian and American authorities.
The success of locating this individual can be attributed
to the cooperation between Interpol Ottawa, the Provincial Repeat Offender
and Parole Enforcement (ROPE) Squad Ottawa office, the Toronto Police
Service Fugitive Squad, the Durham Regional Police Service, and the public.
