Italy refuses extradition of Lee Gilley to Texas
Original: Italian court will not extradite Lee Gilley to Harris County for capital murder charge, attorney says
An Italian court has refused to extradite Lee Gilley to Harris County, Texas, where he faces a capital murder charge, according to his attorney. The decision means Gilley will remain in Italy for now. Italy has historically resisted extraditing people to jurisdictions where they could face the death penalty, and the ruling is likely to complicate prosecutors' efforts to bring him back to Houston.
Why now: An Italian court's refusal to send a capital murder suspect back to Texas raises questions about international extradition and Italy's opposition to capital cases.
