Breaking, U.S. Law enforcement arrested are holding Raul Garcia-Gomez who was arrested this evening in Mexico for murder of Denver Police officer Donnie Young.
Potential for international incident
They are now reporting that Mexican authorities refuse to allow the extradition of Gomez unless U.S. authorities sign some type of waiver, that would allow Gomez to avoid the death penalty or life without the possibility of parole.
Leading story out of KFI Los Angeles at 11:00 P.M. Story developing.
How about, we cut off all foreign aid to Mexico unless they send this guy over.
Or better yet, how bout we stop sending SS payments across the borders.
This is absolutely ridiculous.
Not surprised, bump!

How about, disallowing remittances?

How about cutting off all foreign aid to Mexico, PERIOD? All the money that Vincente Fox can beg from the world won't ever reach his people. Vincente Fox is a miserable failure whose only success has been to export his own people.
They kill illegal immigrants crossing their own southern border like we breath air, but they are above bringing back to us their criminals that victimized our people?
Just what hell did this government of Mexico get born out of?
"They are now reporting that Mexican authorities refuse to allow the extradition of Gomez unless U.S. authorities sign some type of waiver, that would allow Gomez to avoid the death penalty or life without the possibility of parole. "
So let me see if I have this straight. They want us to make a law, and then uphold it?
Irony, anyone?
He did the crime in the US, so he should pay the penalty as prescribed by the local laws.
Pings..
Good call. I saw your post in the previous thread and forgot to respond.
In cases such as this, US Law Enforcement should simply walk way, and then Congress should issue a Letter of Marque and Reprisal, authorizing anyone at all to either capture the accused and bring him to the US, or else to simply execute the person in place (perhaps for a reward.)
He'd just stay in Mexico. I'd call getting away with murder quite a "deal".
I can't imagine, U.S. law enforcement holding this guy in a Mexico police station, and Mexican authorities telling them they can not remove him unless they sign a waiver, allowing him to avoid our laws.
A standoff? They are going to return empty handed? Will they sign a waiver?
This is becoming a repeated pattern of those fleeing to Mexico after committing crimes here, with many becoming involved in the U.S. Many have been and are attempting to reason with the Mexican government to no avail. The Dad, uncle and sister of the suspect have also been arrested in LA for harboring and assisting the suspects flight to Mexico.
FGS! I've had it with Mexico. Seal the damn border.
I'm with ya, onyx.
Get the Mexican drug lords interested - put a bounty on him.
This is so damn outrageous. I'm thoroughly pissed.
