… I’m not sure this is so super groovy for Duane, Leland and Tim. According to a report by the Washington Post it looks like Mexico is appealing the court decision that the statue of limitations had expired on the case against the three men.
A Mexican judge has ruled to close the criminal case against bounty hunter and TV reality star Duane “Dog” Chapman, but state prosecutors have appealed the decision, officials said Thursday.
In the July 27 ruling, Judge Jose Alberto Montes said the statute of limitations has expired on the case, said Guillermo Diaz, assistant prosecutor for the state of Jalisco, where Puerto Vallarta is located.
They go on to report:
State prosecutors, however, want to continue pursuing Mexico’s request to have Chapman extradited, Diaz said. The courts are expected to rule on prosecutors’ appeal in coming months.
What a freakin’ emotional rollercoaster these men are on. It’s not only them but their families. I can’t imagine the stress they’re going through. Duane and Beth both looked over the moon at the first results that the case was overturned. Man, I can’t imagine what’s going to happen next. Will Mexico drop it’s case?
