A 49-year-old man has been placed in Cuyahoga County’s “Today’s Most Wanted” spotlight, with authorities asking residents to help locate him in connection with three domestic-violence allegations and two additional offenses.

The Cuyahoga County Sheriff’s Office identified Jamie Sowell in Monday’s post. The bulletin lists Sowell as Black, 5 feet 9 inches tall, and approximately 160 pounds, and provides a June 17, 1977, birth date.

Wanted Listing Includes Domestic Violence Allegations

According to the Crime Stoppers listing, Sowell is wanted for “Domestic Violence (PC) x3,” failure to comply with an order or signal of police, and obstructing official business. The public database lists him as wanted as of December 21, 2021, while the sheriff’s office has now highlighted him again in its current Most Wanted bulletin.

The available listing provides identifying details but does not include a public narrative describing the underlying cases or a possible current location. The sheriff’s post also does not announce an arrest or provide additional information about when Sowell may have last been seen.

Anonymous Tips Could Bring Up To $5,000

Crime Stoppers of Cuyahoga County is offering a reward of up to $5,000 for information leading to Sowell’s arrest and indictment. The Cuyahoga County Sheriff’s Office says tips can remain anonymous; information can be submitted by calling (216) 252-7463 or through the agency’s online tip portal.

Being listed as wanted does not establish guilt, and the allegations would still need to be resolved through the court system. Anyone with information about Sowell’s whereabouts can pass it to Crime Stoppers without identifying themselves.
