Controversial influencer Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan can be extradited to the UK, a Romanian court has ruled.

Andrew Tate, 37, and Tristan, 35, were detained on Monday in Bucharest after Bedfordshire Police said it had obtained an arrest warrant.

The brothers can be extradited only after the conclusion of their separate trial in Romania on human trafficking charges, a judge ruled.

They have been released from custody.

      Eh. The Romanian charges were for sex trafficking, which their horde of incels don’t actually mind.

      The UK charges they fled include rape in addition to human trafficking.

        Thats cool, but it won’t stop the incoming wave of incels these two created. My point wasn’t it is too late for Justice. My point was they’ve already built far too many followers for their ideas to die with them. We’re stuck with these brainwashed people.

      wtf? The only two countries in Europe that are barbaric enough to have capital punishment are Russia and Belarus. No civilized country has it.

        Russia doesn’t have the death penalty: They abolished it to get into the Council of Europe and haven’t re-introduced it yet.

        …that’s de jure, though. De facto is a completely different matter, both when it comes to falling out of windows and prison conditions so bad serving meatgrinder duty in Ukraine is a preferable option.

          When we used to colonize? The US literally was a European colony too, so that makes you the same bearer of your own “criticism”. But why look hundreds of years into the past when we talk about current modern day policies? Especially when the US continues to uphold those archaic practices? You just further prove my point that Europe moved on and left its gruesome past behind, while the US further relishes in it, or even wanders backwards. I heard you’re big into banning books and taking away freedoms now too.

          If you make any exceptions you grant the government a legal loophole for murdering people. That, and court systems are never accurate enough to be able to sentence someone to death.

          1: Most states don’t have it either, and the federal government doesn’t ask for it anymore. You’d have to like, lead an outright rebellion as a filthy poor to get a federal death sentence.

          2: Some people deserve to get got, your opinion means nothing regardless.

            And in Europe. Civilizedness is subjective, “in Europe” definitely isn’t.

              Nah. There’s nothing civilized about capital punishment. I specified Europe because the UK is in Europe, and there’s no European country with capital punishment outside of Russia & Belarus.

      According to the blurb, they’ll be transferred to the UK after the trial in Romania. Even if they’re found guilty in Romania first. They’ll then have a trial in the UK. If they’re also found guilty there, Romania and the UK will come up with an agreement on which prison gets him first.

      This is probably Romania looking for some diplomatic back scratching. It really depends on what agreement the UK and Romania come to. Also there are a number of other outcomes that are deep in the negotiations.

      Maybe UK wants first crack? I don’t think there’s anything stopping Romania from extraditing them, then once they’ve (hopefully) served their sentences, requesting they be extradited back.

    If these shitheads actually go to jail, it’s prob be one of best days to come tbh. Less misogyny and stupid indoctrination to young people esp young impressionable teenage boys.

        That wouldn’t be an issue even if they weren’t tried. Alleged is one of those words that you can add to make it factually correct, as long as someone is making the allegations. Repotrting on facts is always fine (in the US at least). Now the person making the allegations could be libeling them, but not the group reporting it.

          But if the reporting organization knows that the person making allegations is libelous then they’re also guilty of it. Again, though, none of that matters in the context of Tate.
