In the wake of Duane Dog Chapman's arrest and pending extradition to Mexico, support is pouring in for the famed bounty hunter.
A&E, the channel which airs his reality series "Dog the Bounty Hunter," issued a statement saying, "A&E supports Dog and his family during this difficult time and is proud of his role in helping to bring a convicted serial rapist to justice."
Chapman traveled to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico in 2003 to retrieve Max Factor cosmetics heir Andrew Luster, who was wanted in the U.S. on rape charges. Luster is now in jail, serving a 124-year term. The Chapmans were jailed in Mexico for a brief time for the incident three years ago. Bounty hunting is considered a crime in Mexico.
"Dog is a hero to America ... Dog captured this horrible guy [Andrew Luster] and now he's in trouble for it all over again, " says Rick Fass of Powerlock, a company Chapman is a spokesman for. "It just doesn't make sense," Fass adds, "Powerlock and the entire Powerlock family stands behind our national spokesperson."
Chapman recently filmed an ad for the Powerlock company's new product, Wheel Safe, which keeps wheels, tires and custom rims locked, preventing robbery.

dog was the best at everything he did on his show and who cares what beth looked like
she is pretty to me and his yuuuuuuuuuuum
i can take that home with me forever
the rest of the gang are hot too
I think that this is bull sh.t , why would they arrest him twice. They already had him in custody once, why the second arrest? Are they emberrased he caught max factor heir, and they didnt? or is it because of the immigration feud going on right now?
Dog should be able to buy his way out. Grease the palms of the new Mexican president for what, 10 large? That's about 4 billion pesos. That should be enough to equip their government with a fleet of about 150 knock-off VW bugs. A win-win! Dog goes free and they'll be happy as hell!
The Mexican government should be kissing his ass for taking a rapist off their streets. And kissing all of ours as well. If they didn't have a neighbor with the strongest economy in the world, their whole county would have dried up and blown away into the Pacific decades ago.
Maybe they're pissed because they could've bribed Max Factor for millions. Now they're out that dough and they're taking it out on Dog.
And bounty hunting is illegal in Mexico? Hell, I though it was considered a sport down there!
And as for honoring their laws: please! When they stop encouraging their own citizens to break our laws by crossing the border illegally, then we can start honoring theirs!
LOO K HE'S AN A**HOLE .HIM AND HIS A**HOLES TREAT PEOPLE LIKE SH*T HE'S NOT A COP HE HAS NO WRIGHT TO COME ONTO YOUR PROPERTY IF YOU DIDNT LIST YOURSELF ON THE BOND THE FUGITIVE CANNOT LIST YOUR ADRESS WITHOUT YOUR SIGINURE SO IF A BOUNTY HUNTER STOMPES ON YOUR RIGHTS LIK DOG AND HIS FFAATT UGLY WIFE SHOOT THEM BECAUSE ITS GONNA HAPPEN TO THEM ANYWAY THEY TREAT PEOPE LIKE SH*T WHEN HE'S A CONVICTED MURDER HIMSELF HIS FAMILY WILL PROBLBLY DIE BECAUSE HIS WIFE WANTED TO BE A BAD BITCH THEY DONT HAVE THE RIGHT TO COME ON YOUR PROPERTY THERE REGALER PEOPLE SHOOTEM AND THEN CHARGE THEM WITH TRESPASSING AND ASSAULT THHEEYY DONT HAVE AUTHOURITY SUE DOG IF HE CAME ON YOUR PROPERTY YOU WILL WIN UNLESS YOU SIGND THE BOND IT DOSENT MATTER HE HAD NO RIGHT TOBE ON YOUR PROPRTY IT DOESENT MATER IF HE HAD A WARRENT OR NOT HE HAS NO SPECIAL RIGHTS THEVE FILMED SEVERAL EPISODES THAT PEOPLE COULDIN MONEY FOR SSSUUUUEEEE THEIR ASSES
Question : If Mr. Chapman makes bail and goes on the lamb, who goes after him? Answer: The DOG CATCHER!
Why not leave Dog alone and extradite some of those Mexicans that are here illegally instead?
This is another example of why our entire immigration/extradition policies with Mexico are pathetic! This man and his son along with his brother, traveled to Mexico to capture a purely evil scum-bag that no "official" could catch! The reward for Dog and his team is to be stormed at home in HI by 15 US Marshalls and taken away like a commom criminal. This is an outrage! Max Faxtor, the punk who Dog captured is now serving a 124 year term in prison for his sick and twisted crimes which he videotaped for his own mental game replay real seems to be treated better than Dog. Anyone who belives in American justice stand up and make some noise for support of Dog and pressure the US Attorney to STOP extradition to Mexico and release Dog and his crew pending further negotiations by the State Dept. and US Officials! Our support goes out to Beth and the entire Chapman family. Fight On!
What the heck are the mexican officials thinking!! First they cant take care of there own people the come over here for AMERICANS to support them and then they puta person like the Dog in jail for doing the righ thing. I am praying for Dog, Beth and the family. Dog You keep doing what you are doing. You are a TRUE AMERICAN!!
yeah sue theme rhee're just normal people they have no special rights SHOOT THEM your aloud
free the dog- that guy is the man.... if you agree with this bullsh!t your just as bad as luster the rapist he went after..... dog and his boys had the sac to catch him and they're gettin royally f@cked for it..... if we send him back to mexico lets send all the illegal's back with him
I have already wrote on this matter once.But since i have read some of your letters.I do agree BETH is a BITCH but this is dewanye,tim,lelane.that is in trouble.dog has done a lot of things that i would have shot his ass if they come on to my propery.They act like a bad ass for t.v. but the truth is known they are scared sh*tless.but the dog broke the law so now he must pay.So BETH will have to get a new dog to warm her bed for a little while!!JERY
FIrst off, Mexico will not hand over a cop killer, and we are going to hand someone over to them, that caputured a killer. GIVE ME AN F****** BREAK. This is just like our givernment. They have it ass backwards, We protect our own, and let MEXICO go F****** themselves. They really need to do some soul searching as to who they are handing over. These men, do great things, for the USA and Hawaii and I do not even live in Hawaii, and I know they are trying to clen it up on bad person at a time. But the fugitve they caught in Mexico was a horrible person. Next time just chains and cement and the Guldf of Mexico will work better when you have someone like that. LET THE DOG AND HIS FAMILY FREE. THEY DO NOT DESERVE THIS FROM OUR GOVERNMENT. OPEN YOUR EYES US MARSHALLS, AND LET HIM GO GET THE KILLER OF OFFICER DAVID MARCH CAUSE YOU GUYS SURE CAN SEEM TO GET IT DONE.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Iam a big fan of the Bounty Hunter and this is wrong what these people are doing to them .. they caught a bad man that hurt women....they should be happy...my heart goes out to Beth and her children....Dogg,Tim and Leland will be fine they are very smart guys...they will get out of this mess one way or another....
Screw the Dog and his media whore family. He got what was coming to him. Trying to act all butch and compassionate at the same time. He's a fake and a phony, no doubt. Anyone who watched his TV show are a bunch of suckers and losers. Get a F***en life!
