Can Ohio Extradite a Fugitive from Washington State?

Yes. Under the U.S. Constitution’s Extradition Clause and the Uniform Criminal Extradition Act, Ohio can request Washington’s governor to surrender a fugitive charged with a crime in Ohio. The process: Ohio governor issues a requisition → Washington governor reviews → if valid, issues arrest warrant → fugitive appears before a WA judge → judge orders extradition → transfer to Ohio authorities. Defenses are limited (e.g., mistaken identity, not a fugitive).
