Breaking....Zimbabwe 'seeks lion Cecil's killer' Walter Palmer from US

[msanthrope]

The US dentist who killed a lion in Zimbabwe should be extradited to face charges, Zimbabwe's Environment Minister Oppah Muchinguri has said.

Walter Palmer's extradition was being sought so that he could "be held accountable for his illegal action," she said.

Mr Palmer, from Minnesota, is believed to have paid about $50,000 (£32,000) to hunt the lion, known as Cecil.

He says he thought the hunt was legal and was unaware Cecil was protected.

1. Unfortunately, he will probably get away with it, just like that psycho vet who put an arrow through

the neighbour'a cat skull.

Nothing ever happens to those sick rich fucks. They have too much money to ever be held up to the law.

I can only hope he won't hurt any more animals from now on.

RIP Cecil

17. Proving he knew about the protected status will be the hardest case

Palmer is a piece of shit. That's self evident. What will be harder to prove is that he knew the lion was protected when he killed it. The fact that he tried to destroy the collar and never reported the "mistaken" kill to authorities helps to support the case he's guilty. I'm not sure they completely have him by the balls, however, unless they can squeeze one of these other guys to sing.

18. I doubt he will even return to face justice.

2. Any idea of what he might be driving? I'm serious.

Yesterday I was driving down the main drag of a southern Vermont town and came up behind a big, gas guzzling, black SUV with Minnesota plates. It was a low number plate with "DT" off to the side. My first thought was the asshole dentist. I couldn't see through the windows because they were tinted. He turned off into a neighborhood of expensive homes. If I hadn't been in a hurry I might have followed the thing to see who got out of it. It bothered me so much I looked into a phone book to see if anyone with his last name lived in that neighborhood. There weren't any, fyi. I realize the chances are one in a kazillion, but you never know.

13. I'm pretty sure his personal details are available with some careful google searching

I'm pretty sure 4chan knows everything about this guy.

3. One likely thing, he's probably going to have a hell of a time ever opening a dentist office again

to public patients. Maybe in some clinic he might be hired to work out of view of the general public, but if he continues his current practice or tries to open a new one, I think massive public outcry will close him down. This is going to follow this ass the rest of his life!!!

4. He will probably move to Central or South America

And live happily ever after. Rich psychopaths always get away with it.

6. No kidding.

Tell me something I don't already know.

7. You said it...a world where up is down...no means yes... These pukes who get away with shit like this piss me off to no end.

I would feed that prick to the lions - and pay to watch. Talk about the punishment fittin the crime!

10. As another DUer said

"A jury of Cecil's peers"

8. Wish a wealthy person would put a million dollar bounty on him-

for extradition.

I do believe there are specialists who are really good at tracking people.

9. When will Zimbabwe press charges against him, though?

It's all well and good to call for his extradition (I signed a petition myself), but our hands are literally tied until he is charged with a crime. We don't just exile people based on popular opinion.

[melm00se]

14. laws?

pshaw....who needs to follow the laws when there is a good amount of outrage built up.

i agree but 1st: charge him, indict him, present the US government with an request for extradition, let him have his day to contest/challenge the extradition request and when he loses hand him over.

11. Oh,,,, the Life of an Aristocrat ,,,,

one day you are eating cake on Safari on the Dark Continent and next they are dragging you out of bed to the Guillotine. Never saw it coming!

[jomin41]

12. Now, he is the hunted.

How does it feel, dork?

[msanthrope]

16. that's poor lion went through 40 hours of wounded suffering.

There's nothing that assholes going to feel that's going to make up for that.

[Javaman]

15. this could very likely happen. We have an extradition treaty with Zimbabwe.

keep an eye this.

it could get very interesting.

19. Awesome. I hope he is extradited promptly. nt

[summerschild]

20. I heard his "agent" had contacted the U S authorities this afternoon.

But the big brave lion killer is still in hiding.

He's scared to go home.

Hope he stays scared the rest of his life.

He should dream he is wounded and being chased by lions forever.

21. He's a coward......nt
