I watched a documentary on Dog and what happened to him,his brother and son. As far as I am concern they should not be extrodited to Mexico on any charges. They are hero's in my eyes. They went to Mexico to get a serial rapist off the streets. Dog if you see this we all love you and pray for all of you.

I'm a die hard Dog fan and I think the atrocity done to him and his family is absolutely ridiculous. The Mexican president is trying to make a statement and it chaps my butt that the US even entertained the idea of arresting them. I think the whole affair is stupid. Dog and his crew did a job no one else could do, and then to get slapped in the face for it makes absolutely no sense. I've signed every petition there is for them and encourage others to do as well.

Dog the Bounty Hunter Special appeared on A&E last night. Critics may dismiss his plight because they see his show as a novelty. But I say to you this is of great import because there are three men’s lives at stake. This certainly deserves the attention of the public and the US government.
I am so incensed at his arrest and possible extradition back to Mexico. The whole thing is disgusting.
Duane “Dog” Chapman’s life and the life of son Leland & brother Tim hang in the balance over a minor misdemeanor – the capture of Andrew Luster – notorious rapist now serving 124 year sentence in prison.
While in custody in a US federal detention facility, their lives were threatened by familiar faces and other inmates seeking revenge for his bounty hunting profession. The Mexican prison’s conditions would be worse and they would most likely not live to serve the 4 month to 4 year sentence that misdemeanor carries.
“…. Mexico routinely declines to extradite suspects facing life in prison or the death penalty. Mexico's Supreme Court, which favors rehabilitation and views capital punishment and no-parole sentences as cruel, has blocked numerous extraditions until U.S. authorities agreed to lower the potential punishment a suspect faced in an American court.”
“Mexico itself has a mixed track record for returning fugitives. In the case of American citizens who flee to Mexico, it can take U.S. officials months or even years to get a fugitive returned if they have a good lawyer.”

I hope the Department of Justice does not let the American people down and three of its very fine citizens that need its help. Keep the Dog Free!!!!

What is happening to Dog & his family right now is so unfair. He gets a serial rapist off the streets and this is the thanks he gets. I believe, as many do,that Dog's arrest is the result of a trade between the Mexican & US authorities for the return of two drug lords to the US. Dog, I'm with you all the way! Truth & justice will prevail!!!

While I think Mr. Chapman's efforts in apprehending fugitives is a boon to society in general, it does not give him a pass on violating the laws of another country. He skipped on his bail in Mexico, and for him not to faces charges is a hypocrisy. Let's be serious here, the man arrests and detains people for the very thing he is now faced with himself. He did indeed get a dangerous predator off the streets, but the ends do not always justify the means. Further, one of the largest complaints we have about illegal aliens in America is that they are violating our laws. How can we reasonably make that claim, then give a pass to someone who has violated Mexican law? While I sincerely hope that this event turns out in Mr. Chapman's favor, the process cannot be subverted. The law is absolute and should be followed to the letter, otherwise the foundation on which it is built becomes worthless.

They went to Mexico to get the guy because of the reward money, which they didn`t get because they grabbed him illegally. They didn`t return for their court date. Isn`t this what Dog does for a living? I will support them as I would anyone who got into trouble on a Micky Mouse charge. The arrest was really OTT. Good luck to Dog and his family.

I think as Americans we need to look at this as a learning experience. For some reason the American public seem to think that we are one untouchable and two we have the right to police the world. Neither of these statements are true and this is a good example that the average person can look at. Although his intentions were good you have to respect the laws of other countries.
