Filmmaker To Be Extradited To France Over Murder Case

The Irish High Court has authorized filmmaker Ian Bailey’s extradition to France for questioning in the murder of Sophie Toscan du Plantier, who was found dead in 1996 at her Irish vacation home. Although no one has been charged in the case, police have questioned Mr. Bailey before about Mrs. Toscan du Plantier’s death twice. Mrs. Toscan du Plantier was the third wife of filmmaker Daniel Toscan du Plantier, who died in 2003. More here about the case from the Sunday Times.
