EPA Puts Out ‘Most Wanted List’ to Nab Eco-Offenders
The United States Environmental Protection Agency’s Criminal Division keeps tabs on what it considers some of the planet’s most egregious foes — and it has recently released that most wanted list.
John Karayannides (above) is one of a couple dozen offenders on the EPA’s list. Along with the headshots and descriptive information, the crimes are laid out telling the what, when and why.
For example, Karayannides is wanted for his role in the illegal dumping of 442 metric tons of diesel fuel-soaked wheat bound for Bangladesh in 1999. The relief aid-turned-ocean pollution resulted in Sabine Transportation, Inc. paying $2 million in fines, but Karayannides, the company’s former vice president, is at-large.
