Extradition delayed for murder suspect

The extradition hearing of the man accused of murdering University student Kami Talley was delayed in Alexandria, Va., last week because the state governor’s office didn’t have the necessary documents prepared.
The new date for the extradition hearing of Louis Cardona Buggs is July 19. A court official called the delay unusual.
In the meantime, Buggs has been in a jail cell in Alexandria. His extradition hearing was originally set for April 24, but he appeared in court on that date without a lawyer. The hearing was later rescheduled for May 23.
Buggs is accused of killing Talley at her workplace in north Minneapolis. After a two-month search, FBI agents arrested him April 20 at a relative’s house in Alexandria.
