Chapman, his son and brother were charged by Mexican authorities with illegally capturing Luster. The three, who were arrested with the fugitive after passers-by reported a scuffle, returned to the United States after posting bail of their own.
Chapman's attorney, Robert Sanger, said the bounty hunter faces only misdemeanor charges.

I guess they didn't go back for trial, which I understand is common...post bail and get out..
OK, so the DOJ has Hawaiian police lock him up for jumping bail in Mexico, and he "could now be extradited", for jumping bail on a misdemeanor? Is this a Saturday Night Live sketch? They can't be seriously spending our tax money on this stupidity.
I realize all the cops, fed, state, local and foreign, hate the Dog. He's obnoxious and makes a fortune, doing what they do daily for comparative peanuts. He also embarrasses them by grabbing people they can't, because they don't have time and resources to devote to that one fugative....they have other things to do like protect and serve.
But that said, this is just an outrageous waste of resources.
I can't help but wonder, taking this case and the border guard case, why were kissing Mexico's butt? Has tw convinced the administration we'll all starve to death without the illegal pickers?
