A source told RadarOnline.com: “Preliminary talks have already begun with the US Attorney’s Office about extraditing them back from Canada.

“This could be a lengthy process but we are determined to get them back here to face a judge in Santa Barbara.

“It’s made more complicated because we are still waiting to find-out what happens to them regarding their immigration hearing in Vancouver, as the last hearing was continued.”

The Canada Border Services Agency is seeking to have the couple deemed inadmissible to enter their country on the grounds that they committed criminal acts outside of Canada.

The pair requested asylum in Canada – insisting that “star whackers” who targeted other famous celebs such as Heath Ledger are out to kill them.
