FBI SEEKING THE PUBLIC’S ASSISTANCE IN LOCATING FUGITIVE DANIEL LEON O’NEAL

Robert E. Casey Jr., Special Agent In Charge, Dallas, FBI, is seeking the public’s assistance in locating fugitive DANIEL LEON O’NEAL. O’NEAL is believed to have been seen in the Dallas- Fort Worth metroplex area.

On November 10, 2006, an arrest warrant was issued by the Cobb County Magistrate Court, Georgia, charging O’NEAL with the January 17, 2005, child molestation of his daughter.

O’NEAL has also been charged with contributing to the delinquency of a minor by soliciting his 15-year-old daughter to have sexual intercourse with a 29-year-old male. O’NEAL thereafter fled the state of Georgia and is believed to initially have traveled to the state of Pennsylvania.

Investigation has further determined that O’NEAL is believed to be traveling with his five-year-old son, COLTON O'NEAL white male, date of birth December 28, 2001. COLTON O’NEAL is listed in the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) currently as a missing juvenile. It should be noted that COLTON O'NEAL's photograph is on O’NEAL’s wanted flyer. In addition, O’NEAL and his son are being featured by the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children.

In December 2006, the Dodge Ram pickup truck that O’NEAL had stolen from his father was recovered by the Houston Police Department.

On April 10, 2007, a complaint was filed in the Northern District of Georgia (NDGA), Atlanta, Georgia, charging the O’NEAL with violation of Title 18, United States Code (USC), Section 1073, Unlawful Flight to Avoid Prosecution.

The FBI believes that as late as the Fall of 2007 DANIEL and COLTON O’NEAL may have been in Keller, Texas.

O’NEAL is described as follows:

Sex: Male

Race: White

DOB: 11/18/1971

Place of Birth: Georgia

Height: 6'02"

Weight: 210 pounds

Hair: Blondish
