Dog the Apology maker

With the prospect of some time in a Mexican jail staring him in the face, Duane “Dog” Chapman, better known as Dog the Bounty Hunter is hoping that a simple apology, fine and charitable donation will keep him out of the grasp of some Mexicali justice.



Chapman is presently sitting in a Honolulu jail, awaiting a decision on Mexico’s request for extradition, this as part of a bounty sting that Dog and his crew launched on convicted rapist Andrew Luster, the heir to the Max Factor fortunes. Luster was in Puerto Vallarta when Dog and the crew repatriated him for American justice and thus ran afoul of Mexican ones.

As bounty hunting is considered illegal in Mexico, Chapman and his associates were arrested for kidnapping and posted bail and left the country. They claim under poor advice of their Mexican attorney.

The Luster case, pretty well made Dog’s career and led to the A & E program that seems to control that networks programming grid on most days. Chapman’s lawyer is hoping to have the issue solved before the October 13th deadline, resulting in a free running dog to go seek out future bounties for justice and A & E.
