A lawyer says social media influencers Andrew and Tristan Tate will fight extradition to the United Kingdom. The brothers face rape and sex trafficking charges in the U.K. They were arrested in Miami on Saturday and appeared before a magistrate Monday. They’re being held in federal detention. A U.S. district judge will consider whether they meet the conditions for extradition in the coming weeks. An attorney for the brothers suggests the case is politically motivated but didn't explain why. The Tates’ social media empire promotes wealth, male dominance and misogyny and has made them polarizing internet personalities. They have repeatedly denied wrongdoing.
