It also contains information about the Board of Parole, the Victim Impact unit and the Executive Clemency Bureau; legislation concerning parolees; and a listing of the most wanted fugitives in New York State (2007).

This accretion also includes a December 19, 2006 copy of the New York's 100 Most Wanted Fugitives site captured on December 19, 2006.

It contains a listing of the hundred most wanted fugitives in New York State (2006). For each fugitive, there is an image, a brief physical description, and a summary of offenses.
