Good Morning Kathie,
I checked out Dog's website. Thanks for the link.
There is some real hype, but the guy turned his life around.

Well said Kathie. I too was watching Good Morning America, when they were on. I am glad that he was cleared even though he did not receive just reward. Sometimes when you are good and go over the line, which I am sure he knew what he did, you have to expect some repercussions. I am still glad he caught him, and at least the reward will go to the victims. His life has really turned around for the better!
GO DOG!

Interesting story.
Seems to me in the end all will get what's deserved.
I sense very little negativity in "Dog" .
He will rise above this and come out with more than we could all imagine! You watch.

Have you checked out "Dog's" website? There is a link in one of the earlier posts in this thread. Comes with music and a great background on Dog.

Is this quote why "Dog" won't get any money?
After a Jan. 9 federal warrant was ordered for Luster, California bail forfeiture laws give Chapman and anybody else 180 days to capture Luster to get 15 percent of the $1 million bail, or $150,000.

A judge in NH denied Dog any money - this was after the capture.

I really like Dog Chapman's web site. The music really adds to the intrigue. It's interesting, with lots of information.
I missed this Good Morning America show. I hope he will be on again. I would love to hear him in an interview. I feel he really got the short end of the stick, on this one. He did break the law in order to catch our rapist, but he did get the job done. He has done all of us a service. I wish Chapman was getting the bounty, and giving some to the victims. The victims should get the bounty. It should be paid.
Chapman, will know don't, come out in so much better shape after this find, even without the bounty. I hope he can file an appeal. We will have to watch, wait, and see if anything better, can come out of this ordeal.
Have a wonderful week. Take care.

Ann,
It is a shame that sometimes laws have to be bent to achieve justice.
Time to rethink a few laws.

Yes, Michael, we could rethink our laws, but that won't change anything in Mexico. Mexico has always been a place to run, so the law can't get the bad guys. To bad.
Have a wonderful week. Take care. :

Hey everyone, just got back after several days of travel, catching up on all my e-mail... While I was away, I happened to hear a brief blurb on the news on the radio about this ordeal... not sure of all the details, but stay tuned for more from Dog, as it sounds like a movie may be in the works, regarding Luster's capture
One way or the other, Dog will most likely receive some financial reward
I suspect all victims also have the ability to sue Luster's wealthy estate/inheritance for monetary settlements, particularly since he has officially been convicted and sentenced for his crimes. In addition, they may even receive compensation for telling their stories to the movie producers. At least the possible movie deal presents some potential for compensation to the victims, they deserve it

Kathleen, that sounds great. I hope they make the movie. That would produce a good income. Maybe something good will become of this after all.
Thank you for the information. keep us posted if you hear any more.

Kathie,
That is good news. Dog deserves something for his risk.
The families, et al could sue even without a conviction, but a conviction makes it easier or more certain.

Hi Ann,
I agree that something good may come out of this in the end after all. The movie should be very interesting as well. I'll be looking forward to it when it comes out.
Hi Michael,
Totally agree, job well done! The conviction should help the victims tremendously, confirms their accusations.

Hi Kathie,
Justice is great. I tried to get a thread going about Law and Justice, but Legal Affairs thought it was a leagl issue rather than the philosopical one I had intended.
The difference between law and justice is that justice answers to a higher law.
I was in the mood to chat tonight, but someone burst my bubble.
But I am so glad you are here tonight.

Hi Michael,
That's a bummer.. I would have loved to have a forum on legal issues and justice... that would have been interesting and fun.
I blew through the Jersey turnpike this week... hate that toll, LOL

Kathleen, Yes, it will be a very interesting movie! I wonder who will play the parts? Can't wait till is comes out.

Michael, law and justice, could be a very controversial topic. That could get very heated up. Best left in our minds, I think.
Have a wonderful week everyone. Take care.

It could be Chuck Norris as Dog. He always plays the good guy.

Chuck Norris would be a great choice to play the role of Dog

Rod,
It is interesting that you would suggest Chuck Norris as Dog. When I tried to describe Dog to someone, I said that he looked like a beefed-up Chuck Norris. Great minds think along the same paths.

Like Michael, I thought Dog looked a lot like Norris. Norris isn't really that big but good camera work takes care of that.
Rod
Absolutely, I've done the Hollywood/Universal tour... it's amazing what they can do with cameras, right before your eyes, things are not as they appear. The camera tricks are awesome.

I agree, Chuck Norris should play the part. I always like his acting and he looks similar to DOG.
His website is awesome.
Have a good night.
It is about time that they got this guy. I saw the movie on Lifetime and my heart went out to the girls he did this horrible crime to. Just because he comes from money and has power, there is no way that he should ever get away with this.
Melissa,
W-E-L-C-O-M-E to IPIU and the IPIU forums!!!
The rich throuhout history and in all cultures thought they could do as they pleased. We are starting to catch enough of them that they may start to think about criminal activities.
You need to go to the Introduction's Lounge to post an introduction so that we will know a little about you. After that, all the helpful people in the forums will know you area new and will post good advice for you. First piece of advice - read, read, and reread.

I totally agree!I believe that justice will prevail with a little help from the State Dept. and "Dog" will be fine. The publicity certainly took him to a national level and that will help his endeavors in the future. Although he may have to disguise himself a little now that his photo has appeared.....that's the downside.
Melissa, please make a new topic in the members introduction lounge, with your introduction.Originally posted by Melissa Turchetta

I think his picture has been on his web site all along. I bet he is a master of diguses. So I don't think this will effect him in a big way.

Hi Ann,
I think it's a safe bet that dog is a master of disguise, couldn't agree with you more. Many other PI's and bounty hunters are likely masters at this as well, especially those that are well known and/or working on the high profile cases

We hope that Dog does not go crazy with his disguises like Inspector Clouseau.

Good morning, Michael. I think Chapman, is way ahead of Inspector Clouseau. I wonder what he would think about this subject?
Peter Seller, I can take him, or leave him. He was funny, though.

I followed this thread, hoping for good news about "Dog" Chapman. Has he been released? I feel like going down and getting him. (I'd end up in jail too.) It has been a few months.

Looks like I missed the GOOD NEWS. OK I'm happy he's fine.

The (movie) prototype bounty hunter
Kathleen Padgett, Ann Craig, RoseAnn Weingard and Rod Elliot agreed that Chuck Norris would be a great choice for Duane Chapman. Michael Harris is tempted to prefer Peter Sellers.
But, what about Steve McQueen? He played the bounty hunter
in "Hunter".... I think he was the prototype in this field and he was excellent.
Dragos, I totally agree that Steve McQueen as Ralph "Papa" Thorson, was without a doubt, the best Bounty Hunter movie. This was Steve McQueens last move he made in his short life. It was made in 1980. I could watch this movie every time it is on. So, he isn't an option for this movie.Originally posted by Dragos Sfinteanu

The real Ralph "Papa" Thorson was a bear of a man. He was in The Hunter movie. He was the bartender when Steve McQueen went to get a drink. The real Ralph "Papa" Thorson was blown up in his car, by a car bomb in 1994. It was planted by a skips, he cought that was sent up. We have lost some really good people at a young age.
