Dog the Bounty Hunter was arrested for a "crime" that occurred in Mexico. The crime he committed was failing to turn over the Max Factor heir who raped three women to Mexican Police after he had captured them. He was hired to capture this man not turn him over to corrupt officials who would let him go. When did the mexican govt discover rule of law, why are they protrecting a rapist and why are the dupes in our govt playing along.

In Mexico the police are underpaid and bribery is the way to get the wheels of justice unstuck. Luster was probably faster at opening his wallet than Dog was.

Luster is in jail serving his time. Dog can't have it both ways, breaking the laws of one country and jumping bail, and showing off on TV about being the great bounty hunter who tracks down bail jumpers. He's not extradited yet, and can fight it, but he knew the law in Mexico and got caught. He most likely intended a quick snatch and grab, high tailing it back to the states. That may be the best way to get somone out of Mexico who's run there. But, the Mexican law requires the extradition process be followed.

Dog had the obligation of contacting the FBI at the American Consulate, because the FBI was already there looking for the same individual. Instead he took matters into his own hands. He is accused of breaking Mexico's law of bounty and vigilantism.
He did do something good. The rapist is already in jail and will never get an opportunity to rape again.

I think the Mexican government to trying to get some mileage out of his fame, now that he has a popular show. They let Dog & Co. go after 3 days when this happened in 2003 - why else would they go after him now?

As I understand it, he promised to check in with the court in Mexico every Monday and was not supposed to leave the country. I don't know that his arrest here was a tragedy if he agreed to that.
I question Mexico's prosecution against him to begin with, but Mexico has a right to make its own laws as we do.
I don't like it, but I see how it happened.

"Bounty hunting is considered a crime in Mexico. At that time, Mexican prosecutors maintained that Luster's capture violated their sovereignty."

Dog Chapman knew the risk of going to a foreign country to capture someone for money.

That's the conundrum catch22 of the law. He meant well, and it's not like he didn't know the bounty laws in both countries.
