"As I heard the story related this morning, Mexico would not arrest and return to the United States, a man charged with three rapes."

That story is not based in fact. At the time Chapman illegally arrested Luster, an FBI agent was on the way to participate in the arrest in Mexico. The FBI was aware of the same information Chapman had regarding the location of Luster but the FBI followed legal procedure- Chapman did not.

In this case the Mexican authorities expedited the return of Luster to the US. Luster was apprehended on June 18, 2003 and was in L.A. the afternoon of June 19, 2003. The Mexican judge expelled Luster for immigration violations rather than wait for an extradition proceeding.

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.
