FBI's Ten Most Wanted Fugitives On January 22, 2026, Ryan James Wedding was apprehended in Mexico City and subsequently transferred by the FBI to the Central District of California. He remains in custody pending trial. Ryan James Wedding, a Canadian citizen residing in Mexico, is a former Olympic snowboarder who participated in the giant slalom snowboarding event for Canada in the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, Utah. After his snowboarding career, Wedding turned to a life of crime as a transnational narcotics trafficker. Wedding heads a complex transnational organized crime organization which coordinated the procurement and transportation of cocaine from South America to the United States and Canada. After a concentrated investigation in both North American countries, Wedding was charged in June 2024 in the Central District of California with running a continuing criminal enterprise, murder, attempted murder, and conspiring to possess, distribute, and export cocaine. Wedding was later charged in a superseding indictment, unsealed on October 16, 2024, with allegedly conspiring with others to ship bulk quantities of cocaine—weighing hundreds of kilograms—from Southern California to Canada through a Canada-based drug transportation network. In this indictment, Wedding and the same co-conspirator were charged with directing the November 20, 2023, drug-related murders of two members of a family in Ontario, Canada, as well as ordering the murder of another victim in Canada on May 18, 2024, over a drug debt. Wedding’s most recent indictment includes the ordering the murder of an associate in Colombia in January 2025.
