Looks like the Chapmans have something to celebrate. A Mexico court has dismissed the charges against the various Chapmans.
A judge has canceled an order for the arrest of Chapman, who for more than three years has faced the possibility of extradition to serve a jail sentence in Mexico, attorney Eduardo Amerena told Reuters.
“Chapman can now be in Mexico without any problem,” Amerena said.
Chapman, a burly ex-con who says he has caught more than 7,000 criminals and fugitives, jumped bail in Mexico and fled to the United States in 2003 after spending two weeks in jail. Bounty hunting is illegal in Mexico.
Chapman’s lawyers said prosecutors would almost certainly appeal but that they were confident the ruling would stand. The prosecutors’ office could not be reached for comment.
Chapman was arrested after seizing Luster on the street in the tourist town of Puerto Vallarta to take him back to the United States to serve a 124-year jail sentence for drugging and raping three women.
I admit, I am happy he, Leland and Tim got off on the charges, although you must admit, Dog got a ton of publicity from the media surrounding the capture of Andrew Luster and his subsequent jail time.
