Individuals who provide information directly leading to the arrest of alleged child sexual predator Fischer, 42. He is currently wanted in Florida for traveling to meet a minor he lured via computer. The fugitive evaded capture last Tuesday in Coeur D'Alene, Idaho.
Who Is Christian Bert Fischer?
Fischer is a white male standing 5'10" and weighing 200 lbs. He has blonde hair and blue eyes. However, he is known to dress like a woman. He has also reportedly been using fake names and prefers to pay in cash or ask his associates to cover for his expenses, per KPTV.
