All states have their own statutes relating to extradition of an accused or convicted person from another state, and the U.S. has treaties with a number of countries that provide for extradition. If you are displeased with the length of time required in your state to extradite someone, you should first review the state statute providing for extradition. You also should remember that a state's statutes will include procedures for fighting extradition. Then, if you feel that the local authorities are not in compliance with the law, you should address your concerns to a state senator, legislator, or assemblyman. Do not contact the U.S. Senator or Congressman; this is a problem that must be addressed by people in state government, not federal government.
