The UK is considering submitting an extradition request to the US for the Tate brothers, according to reports.

Andrew, 38, and his brother Tristan, 36, flew to Florida by private jet from Romania on Thursday, where they are under investigation for sex trafficking.

The siblings credited US president Donald Trump for “feeling safe” upon their return to the US, despite Mr Trump claiming he knew nothing about them.

British home secretary Yvette Cooper is exploring legal options to extradite the pair to the UK, where they also face rape and human trafficking charges, The Daily Telegraph reported.

Could get interesting.
Does Trump approve of these two, or send them to the UK?

but Dump insists he knows nothing about it as usual.
As U.S. citizens, the Tate brothers are free to return "home"
as they please.
