FBI Adds Gregory Henderson Jr., Alleged Gang Leader With Kentucky Ties, to Ten Most Wanted List

The FBI has added Gregory Henderson Jr. to its Ten Most Wanted List, according to a report from LEX18 published on Aug. 11, citing federal allegations tying him to drug trafficking and animal fighting conspiracies. The FBI’s action also highlights what it describes as Kentucky ties connected to Henderson’s alleged activity.

LEX18 reported that the FBI listed Henderson in connection with what federal authorities characterize as gang-related conduct, including involvement in drug trafficking and an animal fighting conspiracy. The federal agency’s decision to place him on the national list is intended to increase public awareness and encourage tips that could help law enforcement locate him.

The announcement comes as the FBI and partner agencies continue to use its Ten Most Wanted program to focus attention on fugitives considered dangerous or likely to evade arrest. In this case, the FBI’s decision specifically references Henderson’s Kentucky connections, which may increase the chance that residents or local organizations recognize him or information related to him.

While the LEX18 report identifies the allegations underlying the listing, it does not provide additional court filings or case details in the material provided here, such as charging documents, dates of alleged conduct, or where in Kentucky the ties were established. As in other Ten Most Wanted cases, the listing itself reflects allegations, not a criminal conviction.

Authorities generally rely on information from the public, including tips about possible sightings, associates, vehicles, or locations, to locate suspects on the Ten Most Wanted list. Federal and local law enforcement typically review tips through investigative channels and may coordinate across agencies when suspects have connections in multiple states.

If Henderson is located, the next steps would be determined by federal authorities and any connected state or local investigations. The FBI’s listing indicates that the federal government is seeking to bring the case to the arrest phase as quickly as possible, particularly where investigators say public awareness may lead to actionable information.

For Kentucky residents, the practical impact is immediate in terms of community awareness and reporting. Without more details on the Kentucky ties in the provided report, residents are left with the federal summary of alleged conduct and the understanding that any relevant information should be directed through law enforcement channels designated by the FBI.
