When you seen him mowing the grass you should have called the cops! That would have been their chance to catch him.

Must not be hiding anymore. Mowed the grass last week. Looks like that 93 year old lady is not going to get her money back. What a shame!

Still looking for this guy? Doesn't the Charleston Police look at this site?

Posted by: Anonymous on May 22, 2008 at 11:46 AM
You saw him on Hanna Drive because he lives on York Avenue right off of Hanna Drive.

saw this guy on hanna drive

I found out of Friday that Charleston PD are still looking for him. I don't think they are looking hard enough though.

Posted by: Anonymous on Apr 15, 2008 at 01:36 PM
Eventually he will get caught. Don't give up. I am not. I feel that by him going to jail is the only way to get him the help he needs. His children miss him.

Wake up Charleston Police. The user fee is $2 a week. Thought this was for street repair and morepolice protection not traffic violation. Fight crime not, park along the street all day catching people going to work. You have the location, why don't you arrest him?

Saw response to idenity of Duff. Why haven't police responded to Smith? You've been told were he is.

Posted by: Anonymous on Apr 4, 2008 at 11:27 AM
Chesapeake PD is now looking for him; will just have to wait and see what happens. Eventually he will get caught. Once a theif always a thief!

Posted by: Anonymous on Apr 3, 2008 at 03:38 PM
I think that he must have either turned over evidence on someone else for a even serious crime such as drugs or something. Charleston PD surely would kave found him by know if they really cared and was really looking. There is more to this story than what is being told to us viewers here on WSAZ. It just shows how West Virginia's Justice system is corrupt and only worried about themselves.

If you read the article in the Sunday paper on the Chesapeake Elder Scam you will notice that this person is listed as an alleged suspect. What a shame!

Posted by: Anonymous on Apr 2, 2008 at 03:25 PM
We've told you were he is. Why can't you pick him up? Don't believe the parents.

Posted by: Anonymous on Mar 25, 2008 at 09:09 AM
Just because the car isn't in front of the house anymore doesn't mean he's not there. He's probably just hiding again.

Posted by: Anonymous on Mar 24, 2008 at 03:57 PM
Thanks for the info.

Posted by: Anonymous on Mar 24, 2008 at 09:50 AM
From what I have been told from his sister, that lives in New Jersey; he does have charges against him there. He allegedly stole from his own sister and allegedly received credit cards in here name. I say allegedly so that this can be posted.

Does this man have charges against him in New Jersey?

They just need to get a search warrant for his parent's home and go in and get him! His parents are obstructing the law.

Posted by: Anonymous on Mar 18, 2008 at 04:19 PM
There have been several thiefs in the neightborhood of this guy. How long is he going to be running around? Surely the police know he's hiding upstairs by now. He was home the other day when you came looking.

Posted by: Anonymous on Mar 17, 2008 at 09:28 AM
I know this person and I am sure he is hiding also. His parents are very willing to protect him; especially his mother. They are in denial that he has problems.

Posted by: Anonymous on Mar 16, 2008 at 04:03 PM
Can't anyone get the police to pick up this guy? He's still running around free as a bird! He stayed hidden for weeks but not is being brave and coming outside during the day. The police apparently just leave when the parent tell them he's not there. He is there. Just hiding/

Posted by: Anonymous on Mar 12, 2008 at 09:39 AM
To concerned: When I spoke to the Charleston PD they told me they were still looking for him. So your info is incorrect.

Posted by: Anonymous on Mar 10, 2008 at 11:48 AM
Why haven't the police arrested this suspect. Are they checking this site for updates?

Posted by: Concerned on Mar 3, 2008 at 10:36 PM
You know If there gonna place a subject on this most wanted site, they should have there story straight with charleston PD. Slander is not a good thing and can affect a person for years. Oh another thing this person has been in contact with law enforcement back in sept. This is old news and very much incorrect news. People shouldn't believe everything they read.

Posted by: KLP on Mar 2, 2008 at 04:22 PM
Yes! I know exactly that it is James Smith. I contacted the police and told them who he was and then some!

Posted by: Anonymous on Feb 29, 2008 at 01:53 PM
To the person who identified this subject. Are you sure and if so do the police know?

Posted by: Anonymous on Feb 27, 2008 at 09:33 PM
This man lives on York Ave off of Hanna Drive in North Charleston James Smith is the bums name

I think that there should be a reward in the arrest and conviction of anyone that would take a chance of allowing thereselves to be in harms way by telling who these individuals are. I mean there are informants out there everyday getting paid good money to get people busted. I think it would just be more of an incentive to allow people to tell on these criminals.

Posted by: Bill on Feb 3, 2008 at 05:15 PM
Getting this guy off the streets should be reward enough.

he has on scrubs, check nursing homes in the area or housekeeping hopsitals

Who cares if there is a reward...if anyone knows where or who he is...turn him in...
