Lawyer Joseph McBride invoked Marco Rubio’s family while arguing against Andrew and Tristan Tate’s extradition to Britain, the Maltese Herald reported on August 3. He later publicly vowed to appeal to Trump and Rubio for their release. A Miami judge denied release on September 9; later reporting said separate extradition hearings were set for November 19 and 20. The brothers deny wrongdoing. The September court order discusses exaggerated public wealth claims but does not determine Andrew Tate’s net worth.
