- In 1959, the United States FBI, under Director J. Edgar Hoover, continued for a tenth year to maintain a public list of the people it regarded as the Ten Most Wanted Fugitives. 1959 was notable as the first year in which none of the original top tenners from 1950 still appeared on the Most Wanted list. But 1959 opened with the FBI once again facing a top Ten list nearly filled with elusive long-timers:
* 1950 #14 (nine years), Frederick J. Tenuto, remained still at large
* 1952 #36 (seven years), James Eddie Diggs, remained still at large
* 1954 #78 (five years), David Daniel Keegan, remained still at large
* 1956 #97 (three years), Eugene Francis Newman, remained still at large
* 1957 #102 (two years), George Edward Cole, arrested July 6, 1959
* 1958 #106 (one year), Dominick Scialo, surrendered July 27, 1959
* 1958 #107 (one year), Angelo Luigi Pero, remained still at large
* 1958 #108 (one year), Frederick Grant Dunn, found dead September 8, 1959 However, captures were soon made, thus once again clearing room on the list for a new batch of fugitives. By year end, the FBI had added more than a dozen additional names. (en)
