Treaty unlocks Sing Sing doors
Charles C. Browne, extradited from Canada on a conspiracy charge, seeks habeas corpus in U S circuit court. Judge Hough orders Browne brought to court August 7 as Browne’s extradition and the treaty with Great Britain govern where he can be tried. Browne, once a customs employee in New York, was jailed for two years for alleged fraud but fled to Canada. Canada refused extradition on the conspiracy count but extradited Browne as a fugitive, sending him to Sing Sing to begin his term. Browne’s counsel cites the extradition treaty’s guarantee of trial only for the offense charged and the opportunity to return to the country of surrender.
