Hi there,

I have found two lists online, and they are very similar. You can
compare them with the lists of countries the USA does have extradition
treaties with:

Botswana, Brunei, Burkina Faso, Burundi, Cambodia, Cameroon, Cape
Verde, Central African Republic, Chad, China, Comoros, Djibouti,

You will be able to get more detailed information by using the
combination of the following two sites :

1. http://www.state.gov/www/global/legal_affairs/tifindex.html (All
treaties in force on Jun 2001). Extradition treaty with each country
might be different for different offences.

2. http://www.state.gov/countries/ for updates to any of the treaties.

The United Nations maintains a list, sorted by country, entitled:

BILATERAL AGREEMENTS ON EXTRADITION, JUDICIAL/LEGAL ASSISTANCE,
CONTROL OF NARCOTIC DRUGS, AND PRISONER TRANSFER BY COUNTRY

which can be found here:
http://www.uncjin.org/Laws/extradit/extindx.htm

I do believe that extreme caution is warranted with this analysis,
needless to say. The fact that there does exist an extradition treaty
does not mean that it covers all crimes.  On the other hand,
remembering Manuel Noriega, the feds have, I do believe but cannot
offer a source, swooped in and grabbed someone, and brought them back
into U.S. jurisdiction.
