Home Office To Ignore Wikipedia Founder's Petition Against O'Dwyer Extradition

An anonymous reader writes "The Home Office has confirmed home secretary Theresa May will not block TVShack founder Richard O'Dwyer's U.S. extradition, despite widespread calls for her to do so." It would appear the fate of the tvshack founder is now sealed.

Shortly after I traveled the world and developed bad case of schizophrenia, I was also under extradition request. In this case, however, they got inside my brain and are trying to lurk me into visiting their country. I am now in mental hospital because of this trickery in my brains. What can I do?

Only one way to find out - get an American judge to issue an extradition warrant. It's not like we just ship them over because we think you'll want them - you have to ask first :)

"I read an interview recently in which he said he had spent the GBP140K he had earned from his website on "normal student things" like going to the cinema and buying pizza. Which is such a load of bollocks it's a joke.. "

You clearly haven't been to the cinema recently.
