US pianist on FBI's wanted list

In the United States, a suspected child pornographer has been placed on the most wanted list of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, or FBI, for the first time.

The man, Eric Franklin Rosser, a pianist who once played with the rock star, John Mellencamp, is accused of producing and distributing child pornography.

He was last seen in Thailand where he failed to appear in court after police confiscated pornographic material featuring young girls from the school he ran and his home there.

Others on the FBI list include the Saudi dissident, Osama bin Laden, who's wanted for the bombings of the American embassies in Kenya and Tanzania two years ago.
