Tate brothers to press for release from US jail during extradition fight
Federal prosecutors say the brothers’ wealth claims and multiple passports make them a flight risk as they fight extradition on 59 charges.
- On Thursday, U.S. Magistrate Lauren Louis will consider whether Andrew Tate and Tristan Tate should remain in federal custody in Miami while challenging their extradition to the United Kingdom to face rape and sex trafficking charges.
- The Tates have remained in a federal detention center in Miami since their July 18 arrest, with this custody challenge occurring alongside a separate, ongoing legal case in Romania where they face additional allegations.
- Federal prosecutors argue the brothers represent a flight risk citing the strong presumption against bail in international extradition cases, while attorneys for the Tates maintain they proved they won't flee by complying with Romanian pretrial restrictions.
- Defense attorneys claim the brothers exaggerated their wealth, stating a "$50-million-dollar superyacht" featured in videos does not belong to them and a $2.1 million Aston Martin was rented, countering prosecution flight-risk arguments.
- The United Kingdom has until mid-September to provide evidence to the State Department, while The White House stated the brothers should not expect assistance from the president and no extradition hearing date has been set.
