Yes! Viva the 'Dog'!
This seems like someone out for him...perhaps because of his shows success...He is a cool guy! He deserves the reward money for the Luster capture...
>>>Have you watched that show? Its actually pretty good, and far from trash TV.>>>
I agree.
Not to mention I like seeing a former convict turn his life and take trash off the street. With a heart no less. He is always respectful of even the thugs he takes in.
WARNING! WARNING! Mullet alert!
what, you have to make fun of a person's appearance? Judge the man on his character. and I for one, love his hair.
at least the dog has hair...
True, U.S. law does not apply in Mexico - but Mexican law does not apply in Mexico either. Mordida, not Mexican law controls in Mexico, that is why the Drug Cartels control Mexican cities like Nuevo Laredo. In addition, the U.S. government has hired bounty hunters to operate in Mexico to arrest drug dealers and murderers since Mexico is corrupt from the top down. Google Wikipedia and "Kiki Camarena" to read how the U.S. Government hired bounty hunters to arrest drug gang killers in Mexico. The U.S. should not cooperate with a corrupt country like Mexico in arresting Dog, a U.S. citizen enforcing a U.S. warrant.
>>>If what you say is true, then this is a damnable outrage, especially as Mexico has shown it could care less about respecting the legitimacy of our border and treaty laws.>>>
It is true, the rapist is currently serving 120 years THANKS TO DOG.
I'm sickened by this news.
This is such a joke. If Dog went to Pakistan and found Bin Laden, would we honor a Pakastani request to extradite him back? The American people would lynch any judge or district attorney who honored that request.
>>>Luster may very well own the authorities...though they can't really be owned...only rented 'till the next higher bidder comes along.>>>
Consider the rapist was an heir to Max Factor, he probably did think he had the authorities bought and paid for.
'Reminds one a little of the Elian Gonzales saga.
I don't know much about "Dog", but your comments being true, I agree.
>>>Of course the garb is his schtick but he is really admired by the kids as almost a super hero is>>>
Yes, my kids think he is this side of Batman. It's cool either way, I'd rather have him, mullet and all, as a hero for my kids than Fitty Cent or some other lame-o thug gansta rapper.
Thanks for the correction.
I will have to ask you though to forgive me for wondering this, but what would this situation have turned out like if Dog hadn't gone into Mexico? You state that we had agents on the way down. If that is true then it does put a different face on this.
Please forgive me for being very leary of the explanation you have provided. I'm not charging you with misleading, but I have no faith watsoever in any government explanation regarding what is taking place concerning Mexico vs the U.S. on matters of border control or extradition.
You may be accurate as can be here. I just have no way of knowing and I've seen too much to trust much these days.
It's true that the DEA hired "bounty hunters" but not American "bounty hunters". In 1990, they hired Mexican nationals to snatch Dr. Humberto Alvarez-Machain and Javier Vasquez Velasco and bring them back to the U.S. (See Old Puzzles, Puzzling Answers: The Alien Tort Statute and Federal Common Law in Sosa v. Alvarez-Machainm" by Mark K. Moller) This is an important and significant difference.
Me too. I don't have a television, but if I did, I would watch any show, where there is redemption and justice in real life.
That's not trash.
Luster's arrest came in dramatic fashion early Wednesday morning while a legal liaison for the FBI was en route from Guadalajara, Mexico, to Puerto Vallarta to follow up on a tip from an American couple.
The couple had been in contact with Luster while on vacation, according to FBI Special Agent in Charge Ralph Boelter, and identified him while sharing vacation pictures with a friend. The couple then contacted bounty hunter Duane "Dog" Chapman and later the FBI, Boelter said..
Chapman found Luster first and was arrested along with four others, including a television camera crew, who were traveling with him..

He probably never would have walked out of Pakistan, as he shouldn't have made it out of Mexico. He broke the law and will pay. So tragic to see a reality TV career end this way, I'll miss seeing his 'lovely' wife in glorious wide angle lens splendor. (Sarcasm, for those of you in Rio Linda). He's a 2 bit bounty hunter that thrived on attention, he's going to get plenty of it in Mexican Jails.
Thanks for the follow-up. I didn't doubt you had a basis for your comments. I just wondered if the article was accurate, or the result of a CYA press release.
