CLOVIS, N.M. (AP) - Curry County's top prosecutor is making plans for the eventual extradition of a man accused of killing a Clovis child.
However, District Attorney Matt Chandler says he doesn't expect captured fugitive Noe Torres will be in the Curry County jail long.
Chandler tells the Clovis News Journal (http://bit.ly/zKWEVD ) Torres will be booked into jail, but Chandler then plans to immediately file a motion to have Torres moved to a more secure state prison.
Chandler says there is a state law that allows such an immediate transfer because of Torres' status as a high flight risk.
The 32-year-old Torres was captured Jan. 25 in Mexico. He is accused of being part of a gang that fired several bullets into a house in Clovis in September 2005, killing 10-year-old Carlos Perez.
