Dog the Bounty Hunter is Collared by Mexican Court

Posted by Fara Kearnes on February 16, 2007 3:16 PM |

Dog ChapmanA Mexican court has cleared the way for TV bounty hunter Duane "Dog" Chapman to be extradited from the US. A spokeswoman for a federal court in Guadalajara said Chapman's injunction request was denied and a ruling was issued stating that there was no reason not to try him with the charge of deprivation of liberty of Mexico.

"We only just heard about the Mexican court's decision to continue with the extradition proceedings, and are still in shock," Chapman and his wife, Beth, said in a statement issued Thursday night in Honolulu.

The charges against the 53-year-old star of the A&E reality series "Dog the Bounty Hunter" stem from his June 2003 capture of Andrew Luster, the Max Factor heir convicted of 87 counts of rape, who was hiding in Puerto Vallarta.

Mexican authorities had already asked for Chapan's extradition from Hawaii.

Chapman was arrested Sept. 14 along with his son Leland and another associate and released on $300,000 bail. He faces up to four years in a Mexican jail if convicted.

Luster's capture shot the bounty hunter to fame and led to the TV series. His disappearance set off an international manhunt by police, FBI and bounty hunters trying to recoup some of the bond money. Luster is serving a 124-year prison term.
