"America's Most Wanted" host John Walsh is speaking out exclusively to "The Insider" about the so-called "Craigslist killer."

"We hope that law enforcement has arrested the right person in the 'Craigslist Killer Case,'" Walsh says. "We have been profiling the case on AMW.com and passing all leads received to the investigators. If we learn from police that more accused killers are being sought -- and our help is needed -- viewers can expect that the white hot spotlight of AMW will be focused on these brutal killers on Saturday night. The world will become a much smaller place for them to hide."

Boston medical student Philip Markoff, who is suspected of being the "Craigslist Killer," was taken into custody earlier this week on suspicion of at least one murder.

Tune in to "The Insider" on Thursday to see more with John Walsh.

  • I can't believe that no one is talking about how unsafe craigslist is! No matter what these girls do for a living, they didn't deserve this. If craigslist took normal steps to protect their users this would have been a lot harder for him. All they...

  • The Craig's List killer is really scary but not as scary as the murderers of developing nations like malaria, measles, and malnutrition. The U.S. needs to increase its foreign aid budget to address these humanitarian issues and strategically recruit...
