Extradition For Suspected Killer

The Supreme Court of the Netherlands has ruled that a man accused of fatally shooting two men in Columbus can be returned from the Caribbean island of St. Maarten. But the attorney for 26-year-old Michael Registe said Tuesday he will ask the governor of St. Maarteen to block the extradition. As a requirement for extradition, prosecutors had to agree not to pursue the death penalty. Registe is accused of the July 20, 2007 execution-style killings of 21-year-old Randy Newton Jr. and 20-year-old Bryan Kilgore.
