United States extradition relations with Mexico

United States extradition relations with Mexico can trace its history to the 19th century, when Mexico first became independent from Spain. Mexico has long held a reputation for being a haven for criminals fleeing the United States with the term "heading south of the border" often applied to those seeking to flee the United States legal system.

Most recently, in 2014 a Hispanic husband in New York City killed his two daughters, then attempted to escape to Mexico.[1] Dog the Bounty Hunter once entered Mexico to bring back a U.S. fugitive.[2]
