Juan Elias Garcia (born January 12, 1993) is a Salvadoran-American man on the FBI Ten Most Wanted Fugitives list for killing his 19-year-old ex-girlfriend and letting fellow MS-13 gang members shoot her two-year-old son as he grabbed Garcia's leg for help.[1][2] The murder occurred on February 4, 2010, while Garcia was added to the list on March 26, 2014. He surrendered only days after being on the list.[3]

Garcia was convicted in March 2013 of the murders of Vanessa Argueta and Diego Torres[4] and sentences to life in prison.[5]
