An Oklahoma man on the U.S. Marshals' 15 Most Wanted list was
arrested in Mexico Wednesday and brought back into the country
using the same handcuffs issued to his ex-wife he allegedly
stabbed to death, investigators said.

The manhunt for 34-year-old Luis Octavio Frias finally came to
an end Wednesday night after an anonymous tip to a TV show --
"In Pursuit with John Walsh" on Investigation Discovery -- led
U.S. investigators to his location in Guadalajara where he was
arrested.

Frias is accused of murdering his ex-wife, Janett Reyna, by
stabbing her 41 times in front of her young children in August
2013.

Reyna, who was a former police officer with the Blackwell Police
Department, filed an order of protection against Frias just two
days before her death.

Friad has been on the run for years but an anonymous tipster
called the U.S. Marshals after seeing the case on TV.
Investigators used the information to work with Mexican
officials in locating Frias.

“The arrest of Luis Octavio Frias allows a wounded community to
start healing and stands as a testament to the crucial role the
public plays in helping us locate and arrest dangerous
fugitives,” U.S. Marshals Service Acting Deputy Director David
Anderson said in a press release.

U.S. Marshal Johnny Lee Kuhlman of the Western District of
Oklahoma said Frias’ arrest “sends a strong, clear message to
anyone attempting to flee the country to avoid prosecution that
justice has no boundaries.”

When Frias stepped back on U.S. soil Thursday, he was wearing
the same handcuffs issued to his murdered ex-wife while she was
working with the Blackwell Police Department.

“In so many ways, those handcuffs represented poetic justice not
only for the victim, but for her children, her brothers and
sisters in blue, and her community,” said Kuhlman.

Frias is in police custody in Dallas as he awaits extradition to
Oklahoma.
