Judge to Decide on Custody of Andrew and Tristan Tate Amid Extradition Fight
- A federal judge will hear arguments on whether Andrew and Tristan Tate should stay in custody during their extradition fight on Thursday.
- The Tates have been in federal detention in Miami since their arrest on July 18, 2025, following a UK extradition request for serious charges including rape and human trafficking.
- Prosecutors argue the Tates pose a flight risk, while their attorneys claim their social media presence makes it difficult to flee.
- The UK has until mid-September to provide evidence to support the extradition, potentially prolonging the Tates' detention for months.
