He was captured by the Mexican government and I believe there is something in their extradition treaty with us that prohibits them from extraditing anyone to face the death penalty. We probably had to agree to forego the death penalty in order to get him.
Thanks for that.
Too bad Mejico won’t do it.
” He was captured by the Mexican government”
If he had a chance, he might have fought back but they really must have wanted to capture him, a trophy hunt for propaganda purposes I suppose. You would think he would have had a cyanide capsule like Himmler.
I don’t know the purpose of the 12 billion fine. They can already freeze his assets via asset forfeiture.
