'Dog' Hoping to Cut a Deal with Mexico Sep 23, 8:47 AM EST
The Associated Press HONOLULU --
TV bounty hunter Duane "Dog" Chapman hopes to work out a deal to avoid extradition to Mexico to faces charges of illegal detention and conspiracy in his capture of a cosmetics company heir there three years ago, his lawyer said.
Bounty hunting is a crime in Mexico. Chapman and his two co-stars on the show his son Leland Chapman and Tim Chapman (no relation) "Dog The Bounty Hunter," were arrested and jailed in Hawaii last week.
The U.S. Attorney's Office has until Oct. 16 to file papers in support of their extradition, but Chapman's attorney, Brook Hart, hopes to resolve the issue before then.
Chapman said he would offer an apology, pay a fine, forfeit the bail he posted in Mexico and make a charitable contribution, Hart said.
"What he's prepared to do is take responsibility for not having to stay around to face the charge," he said. The trio had ensnared convicted rapist Andrew Luster, the Max Factor heir, on June 18, 2003, in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.
But they, too, were arrested by Mexican authorities.
Chapman posted about $1,300 for his release, and based on "FLAWED legal advice" thought he could leave the country and Mexican authorities would have no further interest in him, Hart said.

I love Dawg and the gang. So what's the latest on their trouble??? I need the family to keep me informed of these things!!!
I could probably call Aunt Jill. She told me she loves Leland too!!
This is what I've seen so far.

who's Leland?
You have to be kidding Bo?
If you have A&E cable you will know who Leland is.
Watch every Tues. and Wed. around 8 "Dog the Bounty Hunter" then you will know who is Leland.
Even my 62 year old mom knows who Leland is.
