This is not good news. Duane "Dog" Chapman and his crew are going to be criminally charged in Mexico.
Prosecutor Marco Roberto Juarez said he is charging the five with criminal association and illegal deprivation of liberty, which is like kidnapping without requesting a ransom. Both charges carry a maximum of four years in prison.

I think that laws in that area got him caught up. I think that he has brought a lot of people to justice, and he was doing what he felt was right. He made a decision and stood by it. Just because you have money doesn't mean you're above the law, and the guy that he arrested (and why he's in such trouble now) is/was a rapist, and I applaud Dog for bringing him in. I wouldn't have gone back to mexico, either!
From what I understand, if Dog were in a mexican prison, the american authorities wouldn't have any say as to how he was treated. At least this way, he can be here, in our country and can be watched out for...because if he stays in jail, you know someone is going to try and kick his a$$.

HONOLULU - TV reality star Duane "Dog" Chapman and two co-stars on his show were arrested Thursday in Hawaii on charges of illegal detention and conspiracy in an alleged kidnapping three years ago.

Chapman, son Leland Chapman and associate Timothy Chapman were taken into custody and did not resist arrest, said Mark Hanohano, U.S. Marshal for the district of Hawaii. "It went down without incident," Hanohano said.
Mona K. Wood, a publicist for the star of the popular cable series "Dog The Bounty Hunter," said Chapman would be vindicated. "He arrests the bad guys — and he is definitely not one of them," she said.
The charges stem from Chapman's capture of Max Factor heir Andrew Luster on June 18, 2003, in Puerto Villarta, Mexico, said Marshals spokeswoman Nikki Credic in Washington.
Chapman's capture of Luster, who had fled the country after being convicted of raping three women, catapulted the 53-year-old bounty hunter to fame and led to the reality series on A&E.
The three are being held in Honolulu. Bail has not been set. They will face an extradition hearing to Mexico under terms of treaties between the U.S. and Mexico, Credic said.
Chapman's son Leland, 29, and Timothy Chapman, 41, no relation, assist Chapman in exploits chronicled for the TV show around the Hawaiian Islands. The show focuses on Chapman's family as much as the bounty hunting, which generally involves tracking down bail jumpers, often creating emotional scenes with repentant captives.
Charges have been pending against the three since local police in Mexico arrested them shortly after they roped in Luster. They posted bail but never returned to Puerto Villarta for their court hearing on July 15, 2003, Credic said.
Mexican authorities demanded that the Chapmans transfer Luster to Mexican police. Their refusal to do so led to their initial arrest.
A U.S. warrant for their arrest was signed by a federal judge in Honolulu on Wednesday.

I think this is just a secret government plan to send him to get Bin Laden for them. Okay it's a little off the wall but it could be.

Guilty, he obviously broke the laws.
- but I would still like to see him walk. "Someone" is just looking for a handout.
