Nicholas Rossi is wanted by authorities in Utah for allegedly raping a woman in 2008
A rape suspect accused of faking his own death to avoid prosecution can be extradited to the US to face charges, a court has ruled.He also faces multiple complaints against him in Rhode Island for alleged domestic violence.
During a week-long hearing in June, Rossi wore what appeared to be a black legal gown and a yarmulke - a hat worn by Orthodox Jewish men. He also claimed Rossi was not brought before a sheriff within an appropriate amount of time and that he did not receive a crucial document from the National Crime Agency when he was arrested in December 2021 - but all of these applications were turned down by the sheriff.
Giving evidence in his defence, Rossi claimed he was unable to raise his arms above his head because he was too unwell. In closing speeches, Mr Bovey said extradition to the US would be a "flagrant breach" of Rossi's human rights.
