It's called KIDNAPPING, asswipe.
You American scum think that other country's laws don't apply to
you, but you expect your U$ laws to apply to others.

It's a wonder "Dog" wasn't held for kidnapping.
Probably somebody saw the show and decided to make "Dog" a national hero?
He WAS held for kidnapping in Mexico. He posted bail and promissed to appear in
Mexican court. He then fled the country and jumped bail, becoming an
international fugitive from justice, just like the Luster scumbag he was
chasing.
> Probably somebody saw the show and decided to make "Dog" a national hero?
He's a convicted murderer, been arrested 18 times for violent crimes including
robbery. He's gonna rot in a Mexican cell where he belongs.
Not the same thing at all. Luster was tried and convicted of his crimes.
Felonies, I might add.
>
>
Utterly irrelevant.
The convicted felon Duane Chapman committed felonies in Mexico,
and will be convicted and imprisoned there.
And yet Mexico can't do squat about all those assholes who load up a semi
with 100 men, women and children and run them across the border
illegally.... tsk tsk tsk...
Maybe we should have asked them to clean up a little bit of their mess
before we helped them arrest someone who did a service to us by nabbing
someone all the law enforcement agencies couldn't manage to find, eh?
The Mexicans had all of 'em in jail, including Luster. If they didn't want
to let him go at the time, they should've just hung on to him. I'm sure
there would be lots of Mexican females who were *just waiting* to be drugged
and raped by Luster. Dog did a community service for both the U.S. & Mexico
IMO.
>
>
To me, it would be a different situation had Luster been of Mexican descent.
Since he was an American, on the lam in Mexico, my opinion, if the dog got
him, no prob.
As I said before, the Mexican's had Luster & dog & crew in their jail. If
they found what the dog did to be against their law, then they should have
held on to Luster. By letting Luster go back to the states, they in effect
negated their authority IMO.
Like I said, if they wanted Luster to roam free in their country, drugging
and raping, fine by me. They obviously didn't, as they let him go. The
probably thought they had enough problems with all the dead women around
Tijuana. Adding Luster to the mix might put 'em on over-load. Bottom line
is, they sent Luster back to the states, no harm/no foul. Dog's crime in
Mexico was a misdemeanor. Certainly nothing to warrant extradition IMO.

THE INTERNATIONAL EVIDENCE
The U.S. is the most violent society in the industrialized world, and probably
the entire world as well. Although it doesn't have the most police per capita,
the U.S. does have the toughest laws and punishments by far. The question of
which came first, the chicken or the egg, is becoming much less relevant as time
passes; the U.S. has been following this "get tough" approach for decades, with
no significant reduction of its violent crime rate.

STFU you stammering jackass, the convicted murderer Duane Chapman

The U$$A punishes kidnappers too.

No, there's no double jeopardy, even if we were functioning under American
Law in this case, which we aren't. Dog jumped bail in Mexico. He did the
same thing that he dogs his perps for. He didn't go to trial, so there's
no retrial. The case has never been over.
Personally, I'm hoping the man and his family walk free and clear from
this, because I think they're entertaining as hell. There's a level of
white trash that just appeals to me and they hold that line very well. But
your arguments don't stand up to the facts of the case, because after we
disprove the issue of double jeopardy, you're still talking about how
"law" works, and what you're forgetting is that "law" is different in
different countries. Bounty Hunting isn't legal in Mexico, and Dog got
arrested for an illegal act in Mexico, one that *isn't* illegal in
America. If we want visitors to obey our "stupid" laws, then we Americans
need to practice the basic decency of obeying their "stupid" laws when we
are on their soil.
Vivi
--
I wanna play with a pathetic suicidal masochist.
Actually it IS illegal in many States, and if the convicted murderer
Duane Chapman had kidnapped Luster is one of those states, he'd be
facing similar criminal charges.
In fact being that Dog is a Convicted Felon/Murderer, he couldn't
even get licensed as a Bail Enforcement Agent in those states
that require licensing, which is why he hides out in Hawaii where
it is still a wild-west show.
And the Body-Armor that he appears to wear in some earlier episodes
is a Crime, as there are state and federal laws against Convicted Felons
possessing/using body armor. In fact the way they use/brandish
Pepper-Spray as an aggressive weapon would also be a crime in many
jurisdictions.
So what you got is a white-trash convicted felon/murder chasing other
criminals around as staged entertainment in some pathetic holier than thou
opera.

Oh, and in the post where you said Chapman arrested Luster: he
couldn't arrest anyhbody in Mexico, because he doesn't have the
authority. He could notify the authorities and have *them* arrest the
criminal, which is what he should have done.

Uh, that makes no sense. If Chapman had told the Mexican authorities

authorities, he wouldn't be facing charges.
Chapman was greedy, that's all.

Kidnapping is a misdemeanor? He was charged with illegal detention,
conspiracy, and now add jumping bail.
Let's put it this way. Say someone committed a murder in Japan. Came
to the U.S. Someone from Japan travels here, kidnaps the guy off the
street, and smuggles him out of the country. What do you think would
happen to the guy who captured the killer? Especially if he was
arrested, granted bail, and fled the country?

Giving him time to flee again? C'mon, you think the Mexican police are

been on the run how long? With very 'deep pockets'. Sheesh!

Turning him over to the Mexican authorities for a similar fiasco as what
happened in France with *what's his name*? the 'unicorn killer'?? How
long did it take to extradite him?
>

You may believe greedy. Personally, I don't. Dog is a bounty hunter by
trade. He would have known that the million dollars was cash, not bond.
Personally, I believed the dog when he said he was doing it so the victims
could rest easy. *If* there was a reward for it, fine, but I don't think
that was his motive. JMO

Because Ira Einhorn was facing the death penalty. If that had been
dropped, he would have been back here in a jiffy, the Philly
authorities were just stubborn.
No such problem with the ironically named Luster.

What is not the same? Person one commits a horrible crime, flees
country one for country #2. Person number two chases person one to
country #2, kidnaps person number one, returns him to country number 1.
Exact parallel to Chapman and Luster.

Aren't most Mexican police *suspected* of being corrupt? They've got their
hands full facilitating the drug runners, human smugglers, and keeping our
border patrols 'at bay', etc.

It was a high profile case here in the states. Obviously not so in Mexico.
After all, Andrew wasn't 'hiding out' in some small mexican village. He was
living it up in Puerto 'whatever'. He was found with money and GHB. He
wasn't exactly 'slipping under the screen' of recognition, was he?

That's not the way I recall it. Einhorn was tried in absentia which is what
the French protested. IIRC, Philly agreed to the DP issue, yet France still
wanted to hang on to Ira. Why anybody would want to hang on to scum like
that escapes me, but they did.

That part of it was exactly the same, as a matter of fact. Luster slipped
out before his trial was completed, therefore his trial and verdict were
also 'in absentia'.

So what you are asking is 'some Japanses guy, murders somebody *in Japan*.
And some Japanese 'bounty hunter' grabs 'em here in the states and
transports 'em back to Japan to stand trial. And you think we are going to
clammer for getting the, your words, *horrible* criminal back here. And
short of that, we're gonna *want* to get the Japanese citizen who took the
*horrible* murderer back to Japan to face his *justice* there, we're gonna
want to 'hunt that sucker down and bring him back here?' For what? It was
a Japanese crime, Japanese perp, and Japanese bounty hunter.

And if Hawaii gives Dog an
opportunity to make an honest living and reduce crime, that is what
getting back to society is all about. Most criminals released from

are forced to commit crime or starve to death.

LMAO, excellent. Though I am not sure why Costa Rica would have
warrants out for the Reaganauts. But Nicaragua, yeah, we should
definately allow the Contra-loving North, Poindexter, Schultz, et.al.
be snatched up. They were, after all, supporting terrorists.
Funny how so many conservatives have forgotten that.
That's not all, Ira was Tried in Absentia, completely in absentia, not like
Luster who fled mid trial. Most civilized countries do no try people in absentia
realizing the inherant unfairness of such proceedings, and as such most
International
Extradition Treaties do not allow for someone tried in absentia to be
extradicted
to face a waiting sentence, the claimant nation must promise to extend a new
fair
and full trial to the defendant.
Likewise most civilized countries have long abolished the death "penalty", so
they won't extradite anyone to such a barbaric and perverse nation that would
subject the defendant to it.

Spot on.
There were a few different legal issues at play, one was the Death Penalty had
to be tossed as per the extradition treaties that the U$$A signed with the rest
of the world, the other was the issue of the Trial in Absentia, which again most
civlized countries do not accept, and Ira had married and was, IIRC, and
extablished
legal citizenship in Europe with all the rights that any european citizen would
have.

privately kidnapping and sequestering "wanted criminals" to bring them

in the U$A mid kidnap, post bail promising to appear, then flee the country
jumping bail?
Why do you asswipes think that U$$A law applies worldwide, to everyone, yet
the U$$A and any American can piss on the other 201 Sovereign State's laws, eh?
That arrogant ignorant thinking is what gets 100s of U$ citizens imprisoned
every
year in foreign countries, some of them even facing execution for their blatant
ignorance of the host countries rule of law. And no, Brad Pitt and Robert

He is laughed at and reviled in Honolulu, esp the whining haole bitch of a

Ah, a little research revealed that you're completely wrong on this
aspect.
The Smoking Gun has the arrest warrant. Check page 15 - the Mexican
police intercepted Chapman's group on their way to the airport. The
police took Luster in to authority at that time, and they extradited
him to the U.S. Didn't take long at all.
See:
http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/0915061dog16.html
Also interesting in those docs is that Chapman videotaped his capture
of Luster. Yeah, no idea at all that he might try to parlay that in to
a reality show, he was just shooting something for the family to watch
when he got home. What was that you were saying about naive?
Bo Raxo
Imagine that, a regular alt.true-crime hysteric is dead wrong on the

F*CK MEXICAN "LAW"! Dog performed a service by tracking down some rich

If an American gets caught carrying a gun in Mexico, they lock you up
and throw away the key. Unless you pay off the Federales. (And for a
gun charge, they want a whole lot more than chump change.)

Why not? He (Dog's quarry) is never getting out alive anyway. This

And he wasn't allowed to bounty-hunt in Mexico, either!
There's really no difference. You have to abide by the laws of the

Fine. That's a compelling argument for the death penalty. But its
inapplicable to this case. Either Dog broke Mexican law or he didn't.
Unless you are the authorities ... in which case, you are above the
law and beyond it. Torture? Secret prisons? Binding precedent? Law
is for the little people....

Dog evidently broke Mexican law, and at least in Mexico, they still
have the rule of law. May he spend a long time with las cucarachas....

Yeah, yeah. But sh*t happens. He was performing a service, not just for us,
but also for the Mexicans (whether they care to acknowledge it or not).
There is no malum in se here, and THAT is what we should take into account,
not just the vagaries of some mindless foreign law.

This is a prosecutor's response. Either Dog is an evil man, or he's not.
And it is ABUNDANTLY clear that he is NOT! Sending him off to be some third
world hellhole prison serves absolutely no useful purpose for anyone.

Vagaries? Mindless law? He *kidnapped* someone. That's not some
unique, bizarre concept only found in foreign law. You can't kidnap
someone against their will just because you think the ends justify the
means or the person being kidnapped is a bad person.

Not at all. I don't think he's evil. I think he's done alot of good
for society, at least after he turned his life around. But it doesn't
give him a free pass on breaking the law. Should his good intentions be
taken into account in sentencing? Sure. But it has nothing to do with
guilt or innocence.

It gets a bad TV show off the air, IMO that would be worth having him lie
with the cockroaches
But is was why the Judge in California ruled that the murderer Dogface Chapman
was NOT entitled to any of Luster's bail $$.

Wow... it must be a Blue Moon out, Larry and I finally agree on something,
and not once in this post did you make your usual imbecilic error of law.
And maybe the Mexican Prison officials will force him to get rid of the World's
Most Dangerous Mullet.
Or the 12 Jurors who were UNANIMOUS in finding Cameron Brown
culpable in the killing of his own daughter!
Dog may have a shady past, and he did break an unreasonable Mexican
law, but he captured a man who hurt many women and is now doing 124
years in the United States of America. All of you who are against Dog
should consider the good he did for which he didn't get a penny (if I
have read correctly). I sugest you go to www.dogdefensefund.com and
contribute. This fund was set up by one of Luster's victims.
Shady past? *18 armed robberies and an accessory to the murder of Jerry
Lee Oliver* And that's just what he got *caught* doing. That's a
pitch black past. That's the sort of past that makes me wonder why
there are people in jail for the rest of their lives for selling a
couple of pounds of marijuana and people like him out on the streets.
Yes, he caught Luster and got him put away. That doesn't make him an
angel. He should have never have been out of jail himself. He
certainly never served enough time for the things he did.

Understood. This is just the stuff he himself owns up to on his own
website, not hearsay:
http://www.dogthebountyhunter.com/main.php
The two relevant excerpts:
"He's also the king of comebacks -- a modern-day hero who was once a
zero after serving time in a Texas prison for first-degree murder. It's
a conviction he claims was unfounded and later candidly discusses, for
the first time ever, with MidWeek."
"Dog knows what it feels like to be a wanted man. As a juvenile, he had
his share of run-ins with the law from Colorado to Mexico, including 18
arrests for armed robbery."
The guy did 18 freaking months for his role in the murder of Jerry Lee
Oliver. I believe in rehabilitation, but there has to be some
punishment along with it. He didn't do his time for all his crimes.
Carmen
I don't know the details of the case but that seems to explain why he
doesn't carry a gun, if he's a convicted felon. ( laws which I think
should be repealed per the 2nd Amendment - free people should have the
human right to keep & bear arms )
Yes, it isn't a noble matter of choice. It's a matter of law. That's
also why he's based out of Hawaii. In most states a felon can't get a
license to be a bounty hunter. In Hawaii he can.

Sure, it does! It demonstrates for all the world to see that at
least in Mexico, the law is the law, and everyone is subject to it.
Even arrogant gringos like Dog.
> Not at all.
I emphatically agree. Whether his intentions were good or evil, the
fact remains that Dog knowingly violated the law, kidnapping a man when
he had exactly no legal right to. The rule of law is supposed to apply
to all of us, even though Kofi Annan admitted that the concept has been
relegated to the dustbin of quaint notions of antiquity. That a blow is
struck for the law is always cause for celebration -- as so few of them
are these days.

I agree entirely. You can't pull a Bush and try to obtain
retroactive absolution for the commission of crimes against humanity --
it cheapens the law and ultimately, discredits it. Justice Brandeis
minced no words:
Decency, security and liberty alike demand that government officials
be subjected to the same rules of conduct that are commands to the
citizen. In a government of laws, existence of the government will be
imperiled if it fails to observe the law scrupulously. Our government
is the potent, the omnipresent teacher. For good or ill, it teaches
the whole people by its example. Crime is contagious. If the govern-
ment becomes a lawbreaker, it breeds contempt for law; it invites
every man to become a law unto himself.116
Provided, of course, that they properly respect the peremptory norms
of international law. I cannot find any justification in law for the
kind of torture our government has knowingly engaged in.

I wasn't commenting specifically on current US policy or actions; simply
that conceptually, a state incarcerating suspected
criminals/terrorists/enemies is entirely different from a private
citizen doing what he thinks is right.
The state can be acting legitimately or illegitimately, but the
framework and rules are entirely different.
However, you have to concede that the point is relevant to current US
policy. Our President is not above the law, any more than Dog is above
Mexican law. The notion that our nation would engage in well-documented
acts of terrorism in concentration camps like Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo
is appalling, and it's incumbent upon us to ensure that it never happens
again.
For the most part, these people were not enemies of the State; they
were MADE INTO enemies of the State by our leaders. Cf., Nazi Germany.

Again, it's probably a matter of semantics, as it frequently is when
we disagree. At least in theory -- which the Bush regime has shattered
on so many levels, it is difficult to keep count! -- the State can only
act legitimately within the confines of law. As the Supreme Court said
more than a century ago:
No man in this country is so high that he is above the law. No
officer of the law may set that law at defiance with impunity.
All the officers of the government, from the highest to the lowest,
are creatures of the law, and are bound to obey it.

While we empower the State to act in our stead, the State cannot do
what we in law and equity would not be able to do. For example, while
the State wages war against foreign powers in our stead on an "as
needed" basis, we are (self-)tasked to defend the Constitution against
"all enemies, FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC." I would submit that this entitles
citizens to take lethal action against those public officials who commit
treasonous breaches of the Constitution, including those who refrain
from doing their duty. Conversely, I would not submit that it is a
legitimate ground for vigilante justice, as it violates the due process
rights of the citizen being lynched.
The distinction? You can't have a "trial" if there is no mechanism
by which to conduct one. We can act outside the confines of "the law"
when an emergency arises; the State can never do so.
Sounds more and more like Cam Brown all the time.... :)
You weren't? Who wrote "We don't agree vox. Chapman's case is much
different from renditions, Gitmo, foreign prisons, and the like?"
Well, that's a keeper, and the quintessentian example of your profound

Oh really? So the U$ Gov't can criminalize entire groups of PEOPLE as a whole,

at their own instant caprice, for political expediency or as a distractive

The State will do any god-damn thing it wants to do, law or no law,
as long as spineless sycophants refuse to stop it.

Yet State Sponsored Lynching is ok by you, eh Ken?
I recently found an old copy of the Denver Post inside the wall
of one of my rental properties, it was dated 1942 just prior to
the U$ involvement in the war. The corollaries and stories
are utterly horrifying in the context of current events, it IS
history repeating itself, verbatim, all over again.
One of articles is a little ditty about the Colorado Supreme Court
upholding the FORCED STERILIZATION statute, the one that
mandated anyone (read Negro/Chinaman) who was convicted
of 3 crimes was FORCIBLY STERILIZED by the State. The plaintiff
seeking relief was a 3-time convicted CHICKEN THIEF.
Now before you brush that off into the dusty basement of your self-rationalizing
mind, ponder that fact that for such an abhorrent immoral statute to exist,
grown men acting a legislators must conceive, prepare and the majority of
both the Senate and House must agree upon it, the People of the State must
at least tacitly support or demand it, the Governor must allow it, and the
grown men of Law enforcement community must actually Prosecute it,
and the educated men on Judiciary must actually execute it, and the majority of
the members of the final check and balance, the Appellate Courts must
uphold and deem it to be Constitutional. Then, and only then, can the
state forcibly sterilize the poor and/or hungry who have the termerity
to steal food for their survival.
Now tell me again how much of this "faith" that you still suffer from
are you willing to vest upon a "collective" of the same imbeciles, morons,
amoral cretins and generally evil pukes who make up the "individuals" of said
society?
> The distinction? You can't have a "trial" if there is no mechanism

You seem intimately familiar with that.

LOL! -- all The State has to do is "change the law" ... yet they are
too fucking lazy to even bother with that nuisance anymore. The
Sheeple like asswipe Larry don't care, and the delusional Kkkonspiracy
Kooks like you are too distracted tilting at windmills to effectively
do anything about it.
Game over, the U$$A as a Society loses!
Typical Larry The Asswipe, he can't even maintain logical consistency
within consecutive paragraphs.
He'll claim "no citations exist", then rely on citations that other's provide.
He'll claim that the Newtonian Laws of Gravity don't apply to Cameron Brown.
He'll claim that only "one state" bans smoking in their Prisons/Jails.
He'll claim that "reasonable doubt" is "unreasonable" ... if he doesn't agree
with the reason.
He'll claim "there is no such thing as a DNA warrant"
He'll claim that the Judge can't consider hung Jury tally in setting
post-mistrial bond.
Sometimes he'll even disprove his own point within THE SAME sentence, if
you can imagine that level of schizophrenia. And of course he claims to not
only be a lawyer (LOL!) but to be a working Prosecutor in Jew York.
Now if that don't send a chill down your spine ...

It is true that Duane Chapman most likely isn't licensed in California.
It is true that bounty hunting is not legal in Mexico, and, it is true
that the FBI got the same information about Luster around the same time
that he did...but...who got Luster???? Once again, who got Luster???
Who knows what red tape the FBI would have had to go through to get
Luster in Mexico. Dog just did it.

Now you think it is "amoral" for a government to incarcerate a suspected
criminal/terrorist/enemy?
I watched the first and second episodes of the TV show. 1st one out of
curioisity, the second one to see if my opinion was right...it was.
That show is so fake I can't stand to even listen to it (wife insists
on watching it).
I did watch the 'The family speaks out' special the other night. What
a batch of bull.
If those people actually believe the things they where saying about the
law, they have to be dumbest bond agents ever. It was so bad I am
wondering if the whole thing isn't just a publicity stunt and all deals
have already been made.

Ex convicts can petition the court to have the right to get a liscense.
It isn't easy, but it is possible, especially since it is employment.
An example is Jugde Joe Brown on TV. He is like Judge Judy. He is an
ex convict that society gave a chance. Many times a stupid teen does a
horrible crime. But he was given a chance to go on with life and he is
a judge with a liscense!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Um, not sure who told you such a thing but you're mistaken. Joe Brown
has a spotless background, came out of South Central, earned his way to
where he is now through his own hard work *without* ever becoming a
criminal. That's part of his success story. He didn't let his
surroundings dictate his behavior. I suggest you do some reading up on
the gentleman.
Carmen
Judge Judy is an ex-convict?
I went on the internet and researched Judge Joe Brown. Joe Brown has
stated
"I tried not to sentence anyone in the conventional way if I could
think of a better way to get their attention," says Brown. Judge
Brown's unusual method of administering justice stemmed from his
childhood. Born in Washington, D.C., he relocated to South Central Los
Angeles as a young boy. The only child of hard-working teachers, Brown
formed his tough-love philosophy early on.
"I grew up in one of the toughest neighborhoods in South Central Los
Angeles," he says. "If you saw the movie, 'Boyz 'n the Hood,' that was
the way I grew up. I watched my parents tough it out on a daily basis,
and I saw that what really kept them going was making a difference to
others," he states. "That's why today, 'making a difference to others'
is everything I'm about."
People should be kind, caring and humane. When they are not, it's my
job to try and turn them around.""
It seems to be rather difficult for him. He posted bond in Mexico,
which is a monetary promise to appear when the time comes in court. He
makes his living by hunting down people who break that promise
themselves, then *he* goes and does the very same thing. When push
came to shove living a completely honest life and facing up to
responsibility for his actions seems to be more that Mr. Chapman was
willing to do.
Carmen
That's a false dichotomy, one of the logical fallacies. It falsely
offers the listener only two options, deliberately ignoring other
viable options.
The merit of Andrew Luster's incarceration is a separate issue from
Duane Chapman's wrongdoing. The same end could have been accomplished
had Mr. Chapman notified the authorities (Mexican or American) of
Andrew Luster's whereabouts. In Mexico it is illegal to bounty hunt.
That is what Duane Chapman is in trouble for. He then compounded his
legal woes by skipping out on his bond.
Carmen

It seems to for most people. Almost no one will hire them unless they're
dishonest with employers about being ex-convicts. They aren't allowed to
keep and bear arms, or even vote in many places. It sustains the cycle
that prison put them in.

I'll tell you, I was checking out a forum for bounty hunters and they
flame anyone who even mentions his name there. They say that he gives
bail enforcement agents a bad name with his tactics and his breaking of
the law in Mexico and fleeing that country to avoid prosecution for it.

Two wrongs don't make a right. I understand the FBI was right behind
Dog, when he got Luster, and they were about to do it right.

Of course they can.

Judge Judy isn't an ex-con. Neither is Judge Joe Brown. The one you're
thinking about is Judge Greg Mathis. In fact, Mathis admits to having a
troubled childhood and being an ex-con in the opening credits of his show.
> Many times a stupid teen does a

Duane Chapman is a stupid teen? He looks much older than that, as does
Greg Mathis.

Martin Luther King broke the law with his boycotts.
There are many laws still on the books that are unconstitutional.
Dog broke a minor law in Mexico. Dog did not kill anyone in Mexico.
Dog did not commit arson in Mexico. The crime he committed in Mexico
is considered a minor crime, and a Mexican policeman was with him. The
US gladly took Luster and jailed him in 2003. The US could have
extradited both DOG and Luster back to Mexico in 2003. The US did not
do this. Now 3 years later, Mexico wants Dog for a crime that is
considered minor in Mexico. If Dog goes to a Mexican prison, he may be
killed or shanked. He could come out missing an eye or with a broken
jaw. The crime does not fit the punishment. If Dog commited such a
savage crime, then he deserves a trial in the US>
Nice try at injecting emotionalism into the discussion, but let's
stick with the facts. Mr. Chapman wasn't being noble when he broke
his bond agreement. He was serving nobody but himself. It doesn't
matter if you like the laws of Mexico or not. When an American breaks
Mexican law, in Mexico, they are subject to the same penalties
Mexicans in Mexico are for breaking that same law. When a Mexican
breaks an American law in America they're subject to the same
penalties that an American would be. Duane Chapman doesn't "deserve"
anything other more than anyone else who broke that law in Mexico and
then broke bond does - a trial in Mexican courts. Believe it or not,
being American isn't a magical passport to do anything one damn well
pleases anywhere in the world one damn well pleases.
