Texas 10 Most Wanted Fugitive Arrested in Houston Motel After Tip Leads to Capture

Texas authorities say a man on the state’s 10 Most Wanted list is now behind bars. Twenty-seven-year-old Justin Ramon Statum, a documented gang member and convicted child sex trafficker, was arrested March 26 at a north Houston motel after a tip led investigators to him. Statum had been wanted since October 2025 on an aggravated robbery warrant out of Harris County and had previously served time for trafficking minors. Officials say a Crime Stoppers reward will be paid, and so far this year, 17 people on Texas’ most wanted lists have been captured.
