CNN is reporting today that Duane “Dog” Chapman, national treasure and Bounty Hunter extraordinaire, is sitting in a federal prison in Honolulu following his arrest on bail jumping charges. Back in 2003, Dog tracked one million dollar bond jumper all the way to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, where he finally made the grab. The minor detail? Bounty hunting is illegal in Mexico, and Tim, Leland, and Dog were charged in a Mexican court with three counts of unlawful detention and deprivation of freedom, charges which carry sentences of up to four years in prison. Rather than await trial, the team hotfooted it back to Hawaii.

Chapman’s son, Leland, also was arrested Thursday, as was colleague Tim Chapman, who is unrelated but considered a “blood brother” by Dog, according to the reality show’s Web site. Marshals knocked on the door of Chapman’s home just after 6 a.m., and they entered the home after the unlatched door came open, said Deputy U.S. Marshal Jay Bieber.

Chapman was cooperative, Bieber said. He was handcuffed and placed in the back of a government vehicle. Chapman’s wife, Beth, told MSNBC her husband was being held in a federal detention center in Honolulu.

Folks, this is worse than my worst nightmare. No single man has done more for justice than the Dog, the big bad Dog. No one man has been willing to accept the challenge to clean up the mean streets of Hawaii, no single figure bold enough to stand strong and proclaim, “No ice in paradise.” These sick, perverted charges will not, can not stand. Dog is a national hero. Free Dog!
