George Edward Wright (born March 29, 1943) is a Portuguese citizen of American origin, known for taking part in the hijacking of Delta Air Lines Flight 841. Originally arrested and convicted for murder in 1962 and sentenced to up to 30 years in prison, George Wright escaped from prison in 1970 and hijacked a Delta Air Lines flight in 1972 with a number of accomplices. On September 26, 2011, Wright was arrested in Portugal. The FBI requested his extradition from Portugal to the United States, but the request was denied on the grounds that Wright is a Portuguese citizen. (en) George Edward Wright (n. 29 de março de 1943, Halifax, Estados Unidos) é um cidadão português de origem norte-americana, originalmente preso em 1962 e condenado por assassinato a uma pena de 15 a 30 anos. Wright escapou da cadeia de Bayside, em , Nova Jérsia, em 1970, vindo a sequestrar um avião da Delta Airlines em 1972, fugindo para Argel. George Wright viveu vários anos na Guiné-Bissau, país onde tinha pedido asilo politico e adquirido o nome de José Luís Jorge dos Santos, mudando-se posteriormente para Portugal, onde viveu os últimos 20 anos. Casou e teve dois filhos e na aldeia de Almoçageme onde vivia, era considerado um membro respeitado da comunidade. Na sequência de um mandato de captura internacional, foi detido pela Polícia Judiciária portuguesa a 26 de setembro de 2011 tendo o governo americano pedido formalmente a sua extradição. O pedido de extradição foi recusado pelo Tribunal da Relação de Portugal, a que se seguiu um recurso das autoridades norte-americanas. Este recurso foi rejeitado pelo Supremo Tribunal de Justiça de Portugal em 22 de Dezembro de 2011 (pt) |
