POLICY WIRE — Washington, DC — Social media influencers Andrew and Tristan Tate will remain in detention for at least two more weeks as they contest extradition to the United Kingdom, where they face allegations of rape and sex trafficking. US Magistrate Lauren Louis set a detention hearing for August 13 to decide whether the brothers should remain in custody or be released during the potentially lengthy extradition process.

The Tate brothers were not present in court on Monday. The hearing will determine their status pending the resolution of extradition proceedings. The brothers are accused of serious offenses in the UK, leading to their arrest — and detention in the US.
