    FEBRUARY 16,2007: An Associated Press report out of Guadalajara, Mexico stated that a Mexican federal court has denied Duane “Dog” Chapman’s injunction request and has ruled that the star of A&E’s “Dog the Bounty Hunter” should be extradited and stand trial for deprivation of liberty – a charge stemming from Dog and his posse’s 2003 capture of convicted serial rapist, Andrew Luster in Puerto Vallarta.
    Mexican authorities had asked for Chapman’s extradition from Hawaii and U.S. Marshals took Dog, son Leland Chapman and associate Tim Chapman into custody back on September 14th for their role in bringing Luster to justice. Dog, Leland and Tim were released on bail and have been awaiting a ruling on their request to stop the extradition proceedings, which would otherwise require them to face trial in Mexico.
    “Our attorneys have not even been formally informed of the court’s decision, as of yet,” Dog and wife Beth Chapman said. “We are obviously deeply disappointed and fearful of what will happen, and are currently absorbing the news and discussing our options at this time.”
    Andrew Luster, the notorious heir to the Max Factor cosmetics fortune, was convicted of drugging and raping three women over a four year span. During his trial in 2003, Luster fled the country, leading to an international manhunt. In June 2003, Dog and his team tracked the fugitive Luster in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, where he was living under an alias, and seized him. Luster was subsequently found guilty in the US and is currently serving a 124 year prison sentence. At that time,in June 2003, Dog, Tim and Leland were arrested by the Mexican authorities for unlawful deprivation of liberty and released on bail.
    If you feel as I feel you need to write your congressman and have the Chapman’s freed. Thank you.

  • What?  I thought this was over with?  Wow this is still going on?  I LOVE Dog & his wife Beth & their Faith  in God & the show that they do…it however makes me VERY sad that they havta indure something like this for doing something good by getting the rapist…it just seems so ridiculous that they havta go through this!!  My prayers are with them

  • Oh I agree–Dog and his crew arent the ones who need to be in jail–they need to be honored

  • I agree too…

    Have you thought of entering a photo of your grand daughter in a cute kid contest? She is so beautiful!

  • there seems to be an extremely lopsided system of justice.  I will never get it how someone can do a job then be arrested for doing it.  Makes me very happy to see someone behind bars who did all that rape and I’m glad for people who track them down.

    Have a super day.  I’ll see if I cant find a legit petition on the petition site to put my name on.

  • I don’t believe in Justice and I don’t believe in goodness anymore

  • Thanks for stopping by my site.. Have a wonderful weekend..

    huggs,

  • I have already voiced my opinion to not only my congressman but to a few others too. None of us will get a fair shake if we get mixed up with Mexico. Look at what is happening to our border patrols for doing their job. The drug dealer/coyotes are free to come and go as they choose and the border patrolmen are in prison.

    Have a blessed weekend & God keep you safe, healthy & happy. HUGS

  • Hope you are having a fantastic weekend!

  • We just watched a couple of episodes of “Dog” tonight.

  • I am praying for Dog that he will be set free. The scripture came to mind. No weapon formed against me, will prosper.
