Duane 'The Dog' Chapman arrested by feds

27 minutes ago

HONOLULU - TV reality star Duane "Dog" Chapman was arrested early this morning in Hawaii, his publicist, Mona Wood, confirmed. Wood said she could provide no details. MSNBC reports said U.S. Marshals arrested Chapman and two family members — Leland and Tim Chapman — on kidnapping charges.

The news channel said Mexico issued a warrant for Chapman's arrest for his alleged kidnapping of Max Factor heir Andrew Luster three years ago.

Chapman's capture of Luster — a serial rapist — in Mexico catapulted the bounty hunter to fame and led to the reality series on the A&E channel.

Wood says this is obviously a very upsetting time for the Chapman family. She says Chapman is a true modern-day hero.

"He arrests the bad guys — and he is definitely not one of them," she said, adding he would be vindicated.


This is ridiculous! Here is a guy getting the bad guys and he is charged with kidnapping along with his family members. What a shame!

Oh, so Mexico is allowed to harbor rapist, murderers, felons ect.. and will not extradite them without pressure from our government! If they let them go three years ago, they should be set free!

I still can not phantom why any net work would wast air time on such a fake stupid program.

As far as the show being silly, yes it is sometimes but it is not as bad as half the other reality shows out there. I actually enjoy it but hey I watch Cops too. My finace agrees with you Charlesoak. He thinks the show is ridiculous and watches TV in the other room.

AS a 30 year retired cop I'll keep my opinion of the dangers of "bounty hunters" to my self.
