On March 18, 2001 Sanchez and his cousin Mazon Diamond drugged a woman at a Tempe bar with Ketamine and took her to their apartment. The two raped the woman and filmed it. They did the same thing five days later to another woman. 

Sanchez and Diamond both plead guilty, and were convicted on two counts of sexual assault and two counts of kidnapping. But come sentencing time, the two ditched out and went on the lam.

Tempe PD started looking into the case a decade later, and contacted the U.S. Marshals office to help chase leads in Utah, Texas and Florida. Diamond is still hiding. Here's a picture of Diamond in case you've seen him skulking around your neighborhood or at the grocery store.
