A judge in Scotland says a man who has spent almost a year fighting extradition to the United States is Nicholas Rossi.
A judge in Scotland ruled Friday that a man who has spent almost a year fighting extradition to the United States is Nicholas Rossi, a fugitive alleged to have faked his own death to escape rape allegations.
After seeing evidence including fingerprints and tattoos, judge Norman McFadyen told Edinburgh Sheriff Court that"I am ultimately satisfied on the balance of probabilities … that Mr. Knight is indeed Nicholas Rossi, the person sought for extradition by the United States." Authorities in Rhode Island have said Alahverdian is also wanted in their state for failing to register as a sex offender. The FBI has said he also faces fraud charges in Ohio, where he was convicted of sex-related charges in 2008.
