Dog the Bounty Hunter Arrested: Oh the Irony!!!!

[Ilmater]

Sorry to bring the thread back, but this whole situation is p1ssing me off something fierce. Yeah, he broke the law, but doesn't Mexico have more important things to do than track down a guy whose only crime was to bring to justice a SERIAL rapist? Don't they have one or two other more PRESSING matters to concentrate on between siestas?

Why is he scum? Also it's not Discovery it is A&E. Never mind about the reason, you can't get a channel right so your reason would carry no merit anyway.

Anyway, getting this back on topic...While I wholeheartedly agree that the POS that Dog went into Mexico to capture deserved to be dead or in jail for life, my point was that Dog broke the laws of Mexico, (in case you forget, a soverign nation with it's own laws) and should be held to pay for that. IF they choose to drop all charges, I certainly wll think that justice was served, but if they toss him in some dark, dirty Mexican prison, that too will be justice...Mexican style.

My original point about bush was in reference to ignoring the laws of foreign countries to suit his goals...supporting this, is just the same as supporting some of bush's illegal schemes...

As much as I oppose this situation I must agree with you. The laws of the United States are only valid within the United States. We are great, but we are not the supreme rulers of the world.

Other countries exist. They have laws to govern them just as we have. Our continued existance is dependant upon our recognition of the individual sovereignty of the rest of the nations of the world. Thus, we cannot ignore thier laws, for any reason.

wtf....yes we are...

Have you seen the show? He is scum.

why? because he gets people that are wanted from the law? have you watched the show? after he gets them he actually tries to help them

No he doesn't. I know people that have worked with him...it's all publicity. Alot of the time, he will call the person up beforehand and ask them if they want to be on national television. He is scum and a scam. Worthless trash IMHO.[/]


Worked as in past tense correct? Gee no hard feelings if they were fired by him.

Old nieghbor works on production crew and says what you see on tv is really him

to me, he seems a bit trashy. thats just my opinion... and maybe i am jeleous that he lives in hawaii!

 

[mordantmonkey]

yep, this is all about the sovereignty of the mexican government. They jumped bail in mexico, so they are wanted. Now, should the US extradite on a charge like that? no. we have enough clout and good enough relations with mexico to tell them to chill on this one.

True... and unless is was for murder or a very serious crime against a mexican citizen, I don't think the U.S government would just hand anyone over. What is the charge?

Max Factor heir was found guilty of raping three women, he went after him and nailed him. Mexican police wanted the guy in their custody and Dog said no. Hence the kidnapping charges.

 

[tyler811]

No idea what I am doing with this?

 

[redgtxdi]

Tell Vicente Fox that we'll trade DOG for Armando "Chato" Garcia (He's actually been arrested but we're STILL waiting to get him back over here in the U.S.)


Then.......If I had my way........we'd send some fvckin' Seals/Rangers in there to jump DOG outta' wherever they were keepin' him & lock that fvckin' border down FOR GOOD!!


BTW........Dog is not a bad guy. He's someone who's made mistakes and paid for them. He does what the rest of the world WON'T do because he's got a fvcking SPINE!!! Wake the fvck up people!!

Absolutely! Same reason I get up & do my job every day!

 

[Dracos]

Well lets see what the family has to say about this whole matter tonight. This all seems kinda stupid to me, and honestly mexico has no dayum leg to stand on. How can there be kidnapping charges if it was an american returning another american to America to stand trial.

As if someone who is on TV ISN't loving the exposure. That's oxymoronic.
I'm sure most of the people who appear on TV have something" not so palatable"about them. Let's face it, "Saint's" don't make for colorful TV. It's the age old problem ... Good news doesn't sell ad space.
Everyone who appears on a TV show must sign a release, with the exception being videotaped during a social protest or other "news" event. One has no reasonable expectation of privacy in such cases.
Also, because someone else is profiting from the use of your face in the production of their show, they MUST compensate you , unkess you waive that right. The pay is Screen Actors Guild Scale, with no royalty unless otherwise negotiated. Last I was paid, it was $385.00 (Tonight Show, 1987?, Michael Bolton playing "Sitting on The Dock of The Bay")

Ever notice how on some things there are people whose faces are blurred out and others who are not? Gotta have a signed release before you broadcast someone's face while you make coin. unlesss you want a special letter and interesting life, that is.

 

[JeffreyLebowski]

The irony is that Mexico would extridite the guy Dog went after, but they want us to extridite one of our own citizens. I would tell Mexico to f-off.

 

[alkemyst]

This is what's fcked up...he 'illegally' caught:

Luster is now in jail, serving a 124-year term for rape.

Who probably would not have been brought to justice otherwise.

Even here people are hoping he gets put away.

 

[Jawo]

A&E has a special on now...interesting about how he got in the prediciment and the current situation

I thought as long as the person was convicted of the crime, you can show their face completly unblurred on TV regardless of if they want you to or not. And there's nothing they can do about it?

somebody please correct me if I'm wrong here...

Not reading through all the posts... but:

Once he's released on bail, he can just leave town. Who's going to go looking for him?

He probably doesn't want to eat his bail...and a bounty hunter searching for the most famous bounty hunter would be profitable.

He'd have every wannabe bad-as$ trying to find him.

Depends on how you are doing it. There is no crime in stating this person named so and so, in this picture was convicted of X crime. However; going beyond that especially in the pursuit of profit is not ok.

There was a lockdown with a webcam recently that the inmates / prisoners got court-ordered to be removed due to humility.

"Justice" has rules and conventions one must follows. The ends don't justify the means in the legal system's eyes.
