A federal judge in Miami is expected to decide Thursday whether Andrew and Tristan Tate will remain in U.S. custody as they battle their extradition to the United Kingdom, where they face charges of rape and human trafficking.
The Tate brothers, prominent figures in the “manosphere” community, have asked to be released on bail with conditions that include being monitored by GPS and handing over their passports. Federal prosecutors have argued that they pose a flight risk and are a danger to the community given the criminal charges against them.
The Tates were arrested in Miami on July 18, and British authorities are seeking the brothers’ extradition for a litany of criminal charges. They also face human trafficking charges in Romania, where the case stalled in December 2024 but remains open.
Despite their criminal cases in Europe, the brothers traveled from Romania to the U.S. in February 2025. A New York Times investigation found that members of the Trump administration were involved in Romanian authorities’ decision to lift a travel ban on the brothers. President Donald Trump at the time denied knowledge about the matter.
