total flippin' bullS&%T, felons go to Mexico all the time and Mexico doesn't send them back here. WTF is going on?

[mountainlyons]

It is the double standard. Look what luster did and the worldwide manhunt to find him. It would be like throwing the Marines that found Hussein in jail. It is a criminal world with the support of the law abiding.

It's politicians doing what politicians do. It's called pandering to those who are paying for your retirement.

[maine-iac7]

So,did Mexico take ANY action to apprehend the serial rapist in their country = or are they just interested in "perps" who do their job for them?

[MrCFdovnh]

It's a "dog eat dog" world after all.

It is B.S., Mexico will hide criminals from us, won't extradite them, then why are OUR federal agents locking up the bounty hunter & why is he agreeing to be extradited? He should fight that!

[taxesareforever]

Just more sign that our U.S. Attorney General is bonkers.

Uh Mexico did deport scumbag luster and he is now in a California prison.

Chapman(Dog) skipped on his bail for 3 years. JMO, if he would have shown up he would have been acquitted(due to the publicity) and he could have gone on with his TV show.

[Maceman]

Wonder if this will become a political hot potato on the immigration issue front. as the election draws closer. It could, if Dog manages it right.\

Fox News would love it, and the other networks would be forced to pick it up.

It depends whether Dog has the stones and the smarts (which I think he probably does), to use publicity and issue as part of his defensive strategy.

It would be in his interests to do so, and it would be in conservatives' interest to support him.

So jumping bail now becomes a "conservative" cause?

[ßuddaßudd]

Its called being sold out (as Im sure you already know).

[Mount Athos]

Dog is a hero for capturing this man who raped several women.
Our prosecutors are crazy for pursuing this.
Dog should be given a medal, not jail.

[Dane]

Our prosecutors are crazy for pursuing this. Dog should be given a medal, not jail.

Actually it our prosecutors abiding by an extradition treaty(for Chapman's jumpin bail).

If you let Chapman(Dog) off, then Mexico has the right to let the next felon off. Tit for tat.

Just my opinion the Mexican Judge gave him 3 years to come back, after Chapman promised he would come back and like I said before if Chapman had shown up he would have been acquitted or given a minor fine, because of the publicity.

Was DTBH even on 3 years ago? Or was it before his popularity? I think this is actually great publicity for Dog. It might be a little inconvenient for a little while, but will be milked for all its worth.

[Dane]

The capture of luster is what launched his TV show.

JMO, the Mexican Judge is miffed that Chapman hasn't shown up after a 3 year grace period, but that does not matter to some on FR, they think Mexicans are automatically scum of the Earth.

Your faith in the Mexican justice system is hilarious.

Are you going to call Dog a coward on this thread, like you did on the last two?

[Dane]

Your faith in the Mexican justice system is hilarious.

You do know that in Mexico, ones needs a photo ID to vote. Try that in Detroit or Philadelphia, before you knee jerkingly bash Mexico.

Nice redirection senor.

I said Mexican justice system. Voting has noting to do with the corrupt "justice" system down in Mexico.

And yes I am bashing Mexico. They deserve it.
