30 YEARS LATER, STILL CLEANING UP THE STREETS
It has been 30 years since Officer
Steve Ferdin was photographed
on foot patrol in the notorious Poco
Way Apartments. In 1985 Steve was
a beat cop, patrolling some of San
Jose, California’s worst streets. He
worked and lived in the notorious
King and Story neighborhood. As a
young police officer his supervisor
told him not to go down into the
Poco Way apartments because it
was too dangerous. He replied to his
supervisor, “That’s my job, to make it
safe.”

SAN FRANCISCO BOARD OF SUPERVISORS PRIORITIZES POLITICAL STUNT OVER THE SAFETY OF THE COMMUNITY
The following opinion editorial by
Scott Castruita and Steve Ferdin.
With its recent decision to declare
a “Day of Remembrance for Mario
Woods” the San Francisco Board
of Supervisors is showing it cares
more about publicity and short term
political gain than it does about
the victims of violent crime, law
enforcement officers, and the safety
of the community.
Mario Woods was armed with a knife.
Woods had sent a man to the hospital
earlier that evening with a vicious stab
wound. The victim of that knife attack
reported that Woods attacked him at
random. He believed Woods to be
on drugs because of the erratic way
Woods was walking and interacting
with him.
Woods had a violent history. He also
had methamphetamine, Marijuana
and two types of antidepressants in
his bloodstream. He was out on parole
for armed robbery. When Woods was
F U G I T I V E W AT C H N E W S
confronted by police after the stabbing
he refused to drop his weapon. Woods
taunted the responding officers
telling them they should kill him.
Despite the high degree of danger,
police officers first
attempted the only
non-lethal
option
they had. Several
rounds of beanbag
rounds were fired at
Woods, but failed to
disarm him.
Bullets were only
fired at Woods
when he made a
threatening move
towards
nearby
bystanders. Police
officers killed an
attacker who had
already
severely
injured one person while he appeared
to be trying to stab somebody else.
The police officers were left with
no other option to prevent him from
escaping to stab or murder other
victims.
to heal that rift, but instead is a cheap
political stunt.
This was not a case of rash police
action. This was a case of law
enforcement
using every tool
at their disposal
to avoid shooting
an
armed
and
dangerous criminal.
Incidentally, police
were unable to use
a taser to disarm
Woods
because
unlike
almost
every other major
city in America,
San
Francisco
has banned law
enforcement from
using tasers.
While it may seem like a trivial detail
to the Board of Supervisors, the victim
Woods stabbed earlier that evening is
also African-American. While it does
not appear to matter to the Board of
Supervisors, many of the men and
women that put their lives on the line
every day to serve and protect the
residents of San Francisco as law
enforcement officers are also AfricanAmerican.
There is no doubt there is a serious
problem of trust between many in the
African-American community and law
enforcement. But, this action from the
Board of Supervisors isn’t an attempt
By choosing to honor Mario Woods,
San Francisco is playing racial
politics of the ugliest kind. There will
be no Day of Remembrance for the
victims Mario Woods has left behind.
There will be no action to help police
officers do their jobs more safely and
less lethally. Instead, there will only
be increased tensions as men and
women leave their families each day
to go and serve a city that has turned
its back on them.

STILL CLEANING UP THE STREETS
This month marks the 30-year
anniversary since Officer Steve Ferdin
was photographed on foot patrol in the
notorious Poco Way Apartments. In
1985 Steve was a beat cop, patrolling
some of San Jose, California’s
worst streets. He worked and lived
in the notorious King and Story
neighborhood. As a young police
officer his supervisor told him not to go
down into the Poco Way apartments
because it was too dangerous.
“I remember thinking, but that’s my job
to make it safe. If it’s too dangerous for
me as a police officer with my training
and my gun, how do the people who
live there feel?” Ferdin recalls.
Ferdin did go down Poco Way,
and down every other street in the
neighborhood. Today if you look at
the pictures of Poco Way, it’s tough
to imagine any police officer ever
being told it was too dangerous to
patrol. The entire neighborhood is
completely revitalized. Once Ferdin
and his fellow San Jose police officers
F U G I T I V E W AT C H N E W S
began arresting criminals and showing
the community and the city somebody
cared about the area, others began
helping to clean up the streets.
“You look at pictures of the area now
and compare it to what it looked like
then, and it’s unbelievable. People look
at the old pictures and think it looks
like Afghanistan or something.” Ferdin
says. “When I bought my house in the
King and Story area I could look down
the street and see twenty burned out,

Ferdin credits the involvement of the
community and the city in helping to
change the area into what is today.
The city got tough on the landlords and
required them to remodel the slums
and create apartments that were “fit
for human habitation.”
Ferdin is proud of his work as a San
Jose cop and his role in helping
improve the community. That would
be a life’s work for some people. But,

Steve Ferdin is not most people.
In 2004 while on the job working
to help deal with some Mardi Gras
troublemakers, Ferdin was involved
in a car accident with a drunk driver.
The accident left Ferdin paralyzed
and forced him to retire from law
enforcement.
A talented team of doctors and nurses
at Valley Medical Center Spinal Cord
Unit treated him. After a successful
surgery, and an incredible will to
improve, Ferdin was able to walk
again.
“When I was being discharged from
the spinal card unit at the hospital, I
noticed how emotional everyone was.
One of the nurses told me ‘Steve look
around you, nobody ever walks out of
here’ meaning you’re lucky you can
walk again and able to be “walking”
out of the ‘Spinal Cord Unit’.” That I
was a big deal to them. It was really
humbling to realize how lucky I was.”
Ferdin says he has never taken his
ability to walk for granted again.

BULL SEMEN STOLEN
TURLOCK, California -- Tanks filled
with thousands of dollars worth of bull
semen were stolen out of a truck in
Turlock, and it could cause trouble in
the wrong hands.
The bulls are the cream of the crop
and have been selected for their
genetic value.
“The genetics that these Bulls have in
them is out of the top 1 percent of the
world population,” said farm owner
John Azevedo.
The bulls’ highly valued semen is
collected two to three times a week
and shipped to farms in California
and across the world for the purpose
of impregnating cattle.
“Over 70 to 75 percent of all cattle in
the U.S. is inseminated artificially,” he
said.
Turlock resident Anthony Reis
spent months of his time and labor
collecting top of the line bull semen
for distribution only to half it stolen.
“You get to your first dairy and you’re
missing half your inventory,” he said.
Three tanks and a transfer tank with
nearly 3,500 units of sperm were
stolen from the back of his work
truck late Sunday night, enough to
potentially impregnate more than
1,000 cattle.
“You’re trying to make a living the
loss of all those units of semen, and
probably taken by someone who had
no idea what they were stealing is
very frustrating,” he said.
The semen was worth nearly $50,000,
with one of the bulls being the fifth
best in the world now.
“To have a bull that’s that high in
the list and to have that seen stolen
from an allocated bull that’s hard to
replace,” he said.
The tanks that store the semen are
filled with liquid nitrogen. At about
-320 degrees fahrenheit to keep
the sperm frozen, they need to be
handled by professionals. Otherwise,
it can be dangerous.
Reis also says the thieves stole gas
out of his truck and most likely have
no clue what else they took.
“To have someone just come and take
your livelihood is very frustrating,” he
said.
SEMEN DE TORO ROBADO
Turlock – California – Tanques
llenos con semen de toro por valor
de miles de dólares fueron robados
de un camión en Turlock, y podrían
causar problemas en las manos
equivocadas.
Los toros son la crema de la cosecha
y han sido seleccionados por su valor
genético.
“La genética que tienen estos toros
en ellos está fuera de la parte superior
del 1% de la población mundial”,
dijo el propietario de la granja John
Azevedo.
El semen altamente valioso de los
toros se recoge de dos a tres veces
F U G I T I V E W AT C H N E W S
a la semana y se envía a granjas en
California y por todo el mundo con el
propósito de fecundar al Ganado.
“Más del 70 o 75 por ciento de todo
el ganado en EEUU es inseminado
de forma artificial”, dijo.
El residente de Turlock Anthony Reis
ha pasado meses de su vida y trabajo
recogiendo el mejor semen de toro
para su distribución solamente para
tener la mitad robado.
unidades de esperm fueron robados
de la parte trasera de su camión de
trabajo el domingo por la madrugada,
lo bastante para ecundar más de
1.000 reses.
“Estar intentando sobrevivir a la
pérdida de todas esas unidades de
semen, y que probablemente haya
sido robado por alguien que no tiene
ni idea de lo que estaba robando, es
muy frustrante”, dijo.
“Llega a su primer lácteo y ha perdido
la mitad de su inventario”, dijo.
El semen valía cerca de $50.000,
con uno de los toros siendo el quinto
mejor en el mundo ahora.
Tres tanques y un tanque de
transferencia
con
casi
3.500
“Tener un toro que está muy por
encima en la lista y tener el semen
robado de un toro asinado es difícil
de reemplazar”, dijo.
Los tanques que almacenan el
semen se llenan con nitrógeno
líquido. A alrededor de -320 grados
Fahrenheit para mantener el esperma
congelado, necesitan ser manejados
por profesionales. De otra forma,
pueden ser peligrosos.
Reis también dice que los ladrones
robaron el combustible de su camión
y lo más probable es que no tenga ni
idea de qué más se llevaron.
“Tener alguien que simplemente
viene y se lleva su sustento es muy
frustrante”, dijo.

stop or something.”
In 1992 Ferdin and fellow Bay Area
police officer Scott Castruita created
Fugitive Watch. At first the show was
just a series of pictures with voice over
on a local classifieds cable channel.
The show was only five minutes long,
and two of those minutes belonged to
the sponsors who were paying for the
air time.
Police officers had been killed shortly
before Fugitive Watch launched while
encountering what turned out to be
fugitives. The program helps officers
identify fugitives and allow them to
encounter the wanted men and women
on law enforcement’s terms.
After the first week, all of the fugitives
featured had been apprehended. The
program was quickly expanded to
fifteen minutes, and gradually became
a full length show with modern TV
production techniques.
Ferdin said, when remembering why
Fugitive Watch was started, “Scott
and I started Fugitive Watch to help
out other police officers. At the time
the most common way for a fugitive to
be found was for law enforcement to
have a chance encounter at a traffic
Today Fugitive Watch can still be
found on Bay Area cable, but it also
has a worldwide reach. Fugitive Watch
has an active YouTube channel and a
website at Fugitive.com that is viewed
all over the world. They also publish a
newspaper.
Because of Fugitive Watch, criminals
have been apprehended in every state,
and all over the world. A viewer in Chile
once identified a wanted pedophile.
After local police refused to take any
action, the local media was notified.
After an investigation, the local news
filmed the fugitive approaching boys
on the beach. This prompted local
law enforcement to take action and
the fugitive was returned to the United
States to face justice.

“Fugitive Watch just proves that most
people are good citizens. They aren’t
looking for a reward, they just want to
keep their communities safe.” Ferdin
says.
Ferdin could have enjoyed a quiet
retirement after his accident. But, all
these years later he is still involved
with Fugitive Watch, helping keep the
streets safe for the rest of us and his
fellow law enforcement officers.
“Tracking bad guys are just our
passion” Ferdin says.
Ferdin has always been fueled by a
passion to do what’s right, and the
rest of us are that much safer because
of it. It’s no surprise that the guy who
walked down streets his bosses told
him were too dangerous is still deeply
involved in catching criminals.

San Mateo County sheriff’s deputies have
released a sketch of a man who allegedly
stole a smartphone from an occupied home
in the unincorporated area of Woodside in
San Mateo County. The suspect entered
the home in the 4000 block of Jefferson
Ave. by breaking the glass to a rear sliding
glass door.
The residents, a couple in their 60s, were
allegedly in bed during the incident. The
woman got out of bed and confronted the
suspect, who shined a flashlight in her
face. The woman threatened to release
her dog on the suspect, and he fled the
home the same way he got in.
