Crazy Like A Fox?

Could the Wendy's finger-in-the-chili hoaxster be something much worse?

Interstate extradition is provided for in the United States Constitution, Article IV, Section 2, Clause 2: A Person charged in any State with Treason, Felony, or other Crime, who shall flee from Justice, and be found in another State, shall on Demand of the executive Authority of the State from which he fled, be delivered up, to be removed to the State having Jurisdiction of the Crime.

Thus, the premise of extradition is that the person has "fled" from the State that is seeking to administer justice. Since by definition the entry into the new State has been illicitly conceived as a method to thwart justice, the executive branch of that State effects the removal and delivery, reversing the attempted "fleeing." However, if the person entered the second State at its request, then extradition would not apply. Ayala is not fleeing to California; they are importing her into their domain through the act of extradition.

This means that if she killed a woman in Las Vegas, she will beat the rap. Once safely ensconced in California, she can even tell police where she secreted the balance of the corpse. It would probably be bad mojo to flaunt the fact that she was the killer, but theoretically she could even confess with impunity. They could announce an indictment in Nevada but she could successfully prevent her extradition from California forever.
