I think it was a bunch of political crap! He was doing the world a favor, Yes I agree crossing the border into mexico was illegal and he knew it But what if the US starting arresting every single illegal immigrant in our country and locking them up for 6 years, Our prisons would be flooded! , If there has to be a punishment issued I think it should be handled on american soil and nothing more than some sort of fine and probation, A law needs to be inacted so that fugitives can be returned from mexico with no reprocutions on how they are returned! A statement needs to be made to these criminals, The US is not going to stand by let you commit a crime then run of to mexico to avoid being prosicuted!!!!

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!!!!

I think that Dog did what he felt was right in getting Andrew Luster in prison where he belongs.Yes bounty hunting is illegal in Mexico but he was willing to take that risk and get a very dangerous rapist off the streets. He did his time in jail three years ago when this all first started.Deprivation of liberty is a misdemeanor in Mexico so how can they extradite him?There are several young women who will always be gratefull that he had the courage to go over there and get the man who raped them and video taped them while he was assaulting them.

If this Luster asshole, convicted of 86 out of 87 counts of rape, violated or came anywhere near any of your female relatives or friends, would you be quick to fault the Dog on "how" he captured him?
That's the question everybody needs to ask before they say "what goes around, comes around"
I think Mexico should be more concerned with the immediate and dangerous criminals (pedophiles, rapists, drug dealers, serial killers), than arresting someone because they didn't go thru the proper protocol of capture.
Hey, here's an idea: How 'bout we ask Mexico if they want Luster back.

I think it's a bunch of BS!!! He catches people and helps them out. That guy that he caught deserves what he got. Dog on the other hand does not!!! What is up with Americans?!?! If I was the American gov. I would never have let Mexico try and take him away. He raped over 80 women!!! Dog and his crew are heros and should be seen as heros! I hope they get out of this.

I think that if it is illegal for Bounty Hunters to apprehend in Mexico, then he should pay the price of getting caught. He was just doing his job, but he also knows the laws regarding where he can work and where he cannot work!

So arresting drug addicts who can be dangerous is a bad thing and he got what he deserved? Is that what you are saying? What goes around comes around? He helped a lot of people.

It is sad and makes for great tv drama, but the Dog has top shelf lawyers to help him settle this misunderstanding.
