June 6, 2008

ROCKINGHAM COUNTY, NH NEWS -- The Federal Bureau of Investigation has captured Jon Savarino Schillaci. Schillaci, a fugitive from New Hampshire, is wanted for the alleged sexual assault of a young boy in Deerfield, New Hampshire.

When serving a ten-year prison sentence for sexually assaulting two 11-year-old Texas boys, Jon Savarino Schillaci began a correspondence with a family in New Hampshire. The family remained a pen pal of Schillaci throughout his imprisonment. Finally, Schillaci was released from the Texas jail in 1999. Schillaci was to attend school in Boston, Massachusetts and needed a place to live. The New Hampshire family took Schillaci into their home to give him a fresh start at life. When they learned that Schillaci allegedly assaulted their five-year-old son, they immediately reported the matter to the police, in October of 1999.

On November 4, 1999, Jon Savarino Schillaci was indicted by a Rockingham County Grand Jury at Brentwood, New Hampshire, on sexual assault charges. A bench warrant for Schillaci's arrest for Failure to Appear was issued in December of 1999. Once it was determined that Schillaci fled state borders, the Boston Division of the FBI obtained an Unlawful Flight to Avoid Prosecution (UFAP) warrant for Jon Savarino Schillaci. In September of 2000, Schillaci was additionally charged with twenty-three counts of possession of child pornography.

Prior to his arrest, it was determined that Schillaci was living in Guadalajara, Mexico from approximately February 2003 until September 2006 under the alias, Dylan Natchitoches Pierce, aka Dylan N. Pierce. He also operated under the alias Dylan Thomas as a "DJ" for the boychat-associated web-based radio show, "The Dylan Thomas Show". Investigation also determined that Schillaci was the current Webmaster of pedophile website www.boychat.org.

Jon Savarino Schillaci is the 488th person to be placed on the FBI's "Ten Most Wanted Fugitives" list, which was established in March of 1950. Since then, 457 fugitives have been apprehended or located, 150 of them as a result of citizen cooperation.

Once again, fugitive Jon Savarino Schillaci, most wanted for sexual assault amoung other crimes, has been captured.
