From the article: "In a criminal complaint, federal prosecutors said they were acting on a request from Japanese authorities to extradite Michael L. Taylor and his son, Peter M. Taylor, for their alleged roles in helping Mr. Ghosn escape from Japan."
It appears they were not arrested for any US crimes.
- jumelles 6y agoSomething has to be a crime in both Japan and the US for one to be extradited for that crime.
- csours 6y agoCan you give me better phrasing for what I meant? They were not arrested for crimes committed on US soil. As far as I can guess, no US law enforcement would have arrested them for the crimes they committed without the request from Japan (though I may be very wrong about this).
