Reason for listing
Unlawful Flight to Avoid Prosecution - Murder (Second Degree) Danny Liggett is wanted for the murder of a man in New York City (Manhattan) on May 7, 1987. On that date, Liggett was taken by a female acquaintance to an apartment to see a man about selling a piece of jewelry. During that meeting, Liggett allegedly used a knife to attack both the man, who was physically impaired and in a wheelchair, as well as the female acquaintance. Liggett allegedly stabbed the man to death, and then threatened to kill the woman, who survived the attack, if she reported him to law enforcement. Liggett was charged with second degree murder in the Criminal Court of the City of New York on March 18, 1988. A federal arrest warrant was issued for Liggett in the United States District Court, Southern District of New York, on May 16, 1988, after Liggett was charged with unlawful flight to avoid prosecution. The FBI is offering a reward of up to $25,000 for information leading to the arrest of Danny Liggett. SHOULD BE CONSIDERED ARMED AND DANGEROUS
