I just got this email from A&E concerning Dog The Bounty Hunter
 

Dear Michael,

As a fan of Dog the Bounty Hunter, you may have heard his name in the
news recently and we wanted to fill you in on the details.

Dog, Leland and Tim Chapman were taken into custody by U.S. Marshals
early Thursday morning in connection with charges stemming from their
2003 arrest of convicted serial rapist, Andrew Luster.

Andrew Luster, the famed 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 to Mexico.

In June 2003, Dog and his team tracked the fugitive Luster in Puerto
Vallarta, Mexico, where he was living under an alias, and arrested
him. As bounty hunting is illegal in Mexico, Dog, Tim and Leland
were arrested by the Mexican authorities and Luster was handed over to
the United States government by the Mexicans. He was subsequently
found guilty and is currently serving a 124 year prison sentence.

Bounty hunting is illegal in Mexico, and Dog, Tim and Leland were
arrested by the Mexican authorities. After being released on bail,
Dog, his family and team, returned to Hawaii and to their lives as
bounty hunters.

Yesterday at 6:00am, U.S. Marshals stormed Dog?s home and took him
into custody. They then did the same to Leland and Tim. The three
are being held in Honolulu where they will face an extradition hearing
to Mexico. There will be a hearing in Hawaii today at 3:00pm local
time. At that point we will have more details to share with you.

As we have more news we will post it to www.aetv.com

Thank you for your support,

I hope somehow today they are set free! But not likely :(

Man, that sucks. That guys does a lot of good. I've been watching his show a lot lately and I really like it.

Im sure hell have to pay in some way, as what he did was illegal and he probably knew it. But, considering who he apprehended, I hope the USA stands behind him.

Im surprised they didnt include write your local politician to put pressure not to send them to Mexico

I wonder if there is some way a high figure politician can lobby for a better solution then giving them up to the Mexican government.

wow, A&E sure got on the case, they've got a marathon of his shows set up for Saturday already, plus a one hour special set for Tuesday about his arrest!

That's fast work!

Id like to hear from people living in Hawaii. One would think there would be riots or something if they extradited him.

So did he and his team jump bail and never return for their hearing in Mexico?

I wonder how the inmates are treating Dog, son and brother in jail? :Oh crap

I had no idea that bounty hunting was illegal in Mexico lol. With the sheer number of kidnappings that go on there, I?m surprised it is? you?d figure they?d allow bounty hunting so people could capture the kidnappers. :1orglaugh

Who is he?
