I was watching the local news today and they said Federal marshals arrested him at 6am. Since they're in the middle of filming Season 4, the cameras filmed the arrest and followed Beth and the family to the Federal Courthouse.
What I don't get is why Mexican authorities waited all this time. They say Dog, Leland, and Tim failed to appear for their July 2003 court date. Why wouldn't they show up, though?
So far the judge is considering releasing them on bail until the extradition issue is resolved. It doesn't seem likely that the Chapmans will flee, considering they are in the middle of filming for A&E. He has retained Brook Hart as his defense attorney, who I think is the best defense attorney in the state. He's a veteran of high profile cases, so I hope he'll be just as successful with this one!
