## Summary

Andrew Luster, the Max Factor heir captured in Mexico by Duane “Dog” Chapman in 2003, is now free despite initially receiving a 124-year sentence. His release has renewed concern among his victims about their safety and the public’s, while highlighting how a legal error overturned the sentence.

Luster fled California during his rape trial and was convicted in absentia on 86 counts involving the drugging and rape of three women between 1996 and 2000. Chapman said he and his son identified and tackled Luster in Puerto Vallarta, but Mexican authorities arrested the group after they drove away with him. One victim said a notebook found in Luster’s hotel room contained a “payback list” with the names of victims and investigators.
