A lawsuit has been filed to compel the extradition of a federal agent. The agent, Christian Castro, is accused of shooting a man and providing false information to justify the action. Castro was taken into custody in May.
The lawsuit seeks a court order to prevent Castro's release and to require the governor's signature on an extradition warrant. This would allow authorities from another state to take custody of Castro.
