Man Wanted on Child Sex Trafficking Charges Sparks Nationwide Search

Officials have intensified the search for Donald Eugene Fields II, a man from Union, on child sex trafficking charges

Franklin County Sheriff Steve Pelton, along with FBI Special Agent in Charge Jay Greenberg and U.S. Attorney Sayler Fleming, addressed the media to discuss ongoing efforts to locate Fields, who was last seen in March 2022. 

Fields, who is wanted for trafficking at least one child in Missouri between 2013 and 2017, has been the subject of a manhunt since he failed to appear for a court hearing. He is known to have family in the Midwest and has connections to Indiana, Kentucky, and Florida, with a tendency to mention fleeing to Mexico or beyond.

Fields, indicted in federal court in December 2022, has a distinctive tribal tattoo on his right shoulder, which officials emphasized as a notable identifier. Described as approximately 6 feet tall and weighing between 220 and 235 pounds, he has brown hair, hazel eyes, and various scars on his chest, groin, legs, and knees. He often takes cash-paying odd jobs, such as tree trimming, working in resale shops, and car mechanics. 

Authorities have added him to the FBI’s Top 10 Most Wanted list and announced a $250,000 cash reward for any tip leading to his arrest.

Fields has been charged with child sex trafficking at the federal level and faces a potential life sentence if convicted. He also faces charges at the circuit court level, including child molestation, statutory rape, statutory sodomy, and tampering with a witness.
