美国联邦法官劳伦·路易斯裁定,社交媒体人物安德鲁·泰特和特里斯坦·泰特兄弟将继续被关押,并将于8月13日举行羁押听证会[1]。两兄弟因涉嫌强奸和贩运妇女而被指控,目前正抵抗被引渡至英国[1]。
兄弟俩自7月18日被捕以来一直被监禁[1]。英国当局指控他们在2010年至2017年期间涉及多项性犯罪,包括强奸、殴打、贩运以及与儿童不雅图像和极端色情内容相关的罪行[1]。两人拥有美国和英国双重国籍[1]。现年39岁的安德鲁·泰特在社交媒体平台X上拥有超过1000万粉丝[1]。英国当局需在9月中旬前将全部案件材料提交给美国国务院[1]。兄弟俩的律师约瑟夫·麦克布赖德表示:"他们除了指控外别无其他"[1]。
A U.S. Magistrate has ordered that brothers Andrew and Tristan Tate remain in detention for at least two more weeks as they face extradition proceedings to the United Kingdom [1]. Magistrate Lauren Louis scheduled a detention hearing for August 13, following the brothers' arrest on July 18 [1]. The pair, who hold dual U.S. and UK citizenship, are accused of multiple sexual crimes allegedly committed between 2010 and 2017, including rape, assault, and human trafficking [1].
The brothers are resisting extradition to face the charges brought by British authorities, which also encompass offences related to indecent images of a child and extreme pornography [1]. According to their attorney Joseph McBride, the case against them rests solely on accusations: "They don't have anything but the accusations" [1]. The United Kingdom has until mid-September to submit all relevant materials to the State Department [1].
Andrew Tate, 39, is a prominent social media figure with over 10 million followers on X [1]. The detention order ensures the brothers will remain in custody through at least the August 13 hearing date as the legal process continues [1].
