Montana Criminals - The Two Most Wanted in the State
I am going to blame this one on Hollywood because when I think of a marshal, I think of Matt Dillon or Lone Wolf McQuaid. Can't help it. And while the look of a United States Marshal may have changed, the criminals they chase haven't.
In Montana, the US Marshals service is currently tracking two individuals that are at the top of the list of most wanted in the state.

The US Marshals Service's mission is "to enforce federal laws and provide support to virtually all elements of federal justice system through multiple disciplines." They are also the nation's oldest and most versatile federal law enforcement agency.

And for a criminal to make the most wanted list with the marshal service, the crime would have to be pretty bad, right? Indeed, they are. And the two most wanted are definitely on the "don't approach" side of the law.
