Ibbetson. We invite you to listen and comment on the show!

Another month, another tax lien for Duane “Dog” Chapman. The Honolulu-based TV bounty hunter and his wife Alice E. Smith, known as Beth Chapman, owe $1.8 million to the Internal Revenue Service on 2006 and 2007 income, according to a federal tax lien recorded May 19 by the Hawaii Bureau of Conveyances. The liens come five months after liens totalling more than $2 million were filed in Hawaii against the Chapmans for unpaid taxes from 2002 through 2005. The Chapmans’ Los Angeles-based accountant, Dennis Duban, told PBN in February that some of the federal tax bills had already been paid...

Dog Chapman has been captured spewing foul-mouthed racist slurs on a tape obtained exclusively by The NATIONAL ENQUIRER.

The FBI and other authorities then disavowed any...

Mexico - where bounty hunting is illegal - claims Chapman jumped bail after being charged with illegally detaining Luster in June 2003. A new special about last week's arrest will air tonight (10 p.m.) on A&E. Chapman, who is out on $300,000 bail, said on yesterday's "Today" show that if he goes to prison in Mexico, he will be killed by inmates avenging the thousands of fleeing felons he's brought to justice. "I won't last two days," he said.

Mullett headed TV bounty hunter Duane 'Dog' Chapman and two of his co-stars were arrested yesterday in Hawaii. Chapman, his son Leland and Timothy Chapman were brought into custody on suspicion of illegal detention and conspiracy in a kidnapping dating back three years.

The charges date back to Chapman's apprehension of Max Factor heir Andrew Luster in Puerto Villarta,...
