American Authorities: Michael Stanley

Michael Stanley: A spokesman for Albertas Justice Department said in a statement on Saturday that although Michael Stanley has a criminal record of violent offences, the charges he is currently wanted for arent severe enough to justify asking American authorities to turn him over, according to The Star. Police have been trying to track down Michael Stanley since Oct. 1 when the electronic monitoring bracelet he was wearing was cut off. The bracelet was found on the roof of a business in Lloydminister, which straddles the Alberta-Saskatchewan boundary and EDMONTON The Alberta government wont ask the federal government to seek the extradition of a convicted sex offender who police say fled Canada for the United States. Mr. Stanley is not currently charged with any offences of violence in Canada, Dan Laville said in an email Saturday evening. The charges currently against him do not typically warrant engaging the extradition process. We advised our federal counterparts of the decision Saturday afternoon. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
