Rothschild Battles Extradition Tangle in Three States
Charles P. (Rocky) Rothschild, a former Cairo police officer, is free on bond in a bid to avoid extradition to Georgia and South Carolina. He surrendered in Newport Kentucky on a South Carolina warrant charging conspiracy and assault with a deadly weapon after missing a Paducah hearing. A $15,000 bond was forfeited and a separate $5,000 bond remains on a Georgia burglary case. Authorities say the Newport release was a legal maneuver to dodge the Paducah hearing, with a May 10 forfeiture hearing set in Paducah. He is also linked to a Spartanburg burglary where a night watchman was assaulted.
