The creator of “America’s Most Wanted” TV show is urging voters in the Syracuse region to back the re-election of first-term Republican Rep. Brandon Williams in a new TV ad.

“Tonight, America’s most dangerous criminals are back out on our streets, thanks to Democrats Kathy Hochul and John Mannion, ” says John Walsh, 79, whose 6-year-old son, Adam, was abducted from a department store in Florida and killed in 1981.

“Democrats support cashless bail and defunding the police, releasing violent criminals into our communities, putting our families at risk …Brandon Williams will keep America’s Most Wanted behind bars where they belong,” Walsh says in the 30-second TV spot.

During an interview Wednesday, Walsh said he came out of retirement and revived his show because he’s disgusted by crime, particularly in small upstate cities where he grew up.

“New York State has this no bail bull***t,” he fumed.

“The cities in upstate NY are riddled with crime.”

Walsh fumed about the migrants who beat up cops in Times Square and got away with it.

“No one should get out of jail for beating up a cop,” he said.

Walsh’s backing could be a boost for Williams, 57, a former Navy nuclear submarine and strategic missile officer, who is running against Democratic opponent John Mannion.

“He’s a law and order guy who served in the Navy. We need 50 more Brandons in Congress.”
