FBI nabs ‘Most Wanted’ fugitive in the Caribbean
FBI nabs ‘Most Wanted’ fugitive in the Caribbean
Michael Registe is accused in killings of Columbus State students

The FBI arrested Wednesday one of its “10 Most Wanted” fugitives on charges of murdering two Columbus State University students last year.
According to a news release on the arrests, Michael Jason Registe was captured in St. Maarten after a series of tips led authorities to a guest house in the Belvedere section of Dutch St. Maarten in the Caribbean.
Registe will have a extradition hearing before he is returned to the United States. The process could take as long as two weeks.
High school friends Bryan Kilgore, 20, and Randy Newton Jr., 21, were both shot in the head execution-style on July 20, 2007, in a Columbus apartment complex parking lot. They died within hours of each other.
The FBI did not state a motive for the killings.
Registe, 25, was named one of the FBI’s Top Ten Fugitives in July 2008.

The FBI nabbed these two where they did not have any jurisdiction.

Michael Jason Registe
Tribune wire report
8:02 AM CDT, August 28, 2008
Michael Jason Registe, the suspect in the killing of two Columbus State University students 13 months ago, was captured Wednesday on the Caribbean island of St. Maarten after a $100,000 reward was announced a month ago, authorities said.
Registe is wanted in the shooting of Randy Newton Jr., 21, and Bryan Kilgore, 20, in the parking lot of Cross Creek Apartments on July 20, 2007. Both were shot in the head at close range.
The 25-year-old Registe was added to the FBI's Top 10 Most Wanted list last month, when the reward for his capture was raised from $20,000 to $100,000. The FBI and Columbus police said at the time they believed he had fled to the Virgin Islands or elsewhere in the Caribbean.
Numerous tips were received by the FBI after the airing of an "America's Most Wanted" television segment featuring Registe, said Gregory Jones, agent in charge of the FBI in Atlanta.
Jones said Registe was arrested at a guest house shortly after 11 a.m. by St. Maarten police officials in conjunction with the Antilles Director of Public Prosecution and through coordination with the FBI's legal attache in Bridgetown, Barbados.
Registe faces extradition hearings at St. Maarten for his removal back to Columbus, which could take several months.
...............................................................
The FBI asked the local police to arrest him and now have to go through the courts to take custody of him. Normal procedure.
