Smyth faces four counts of fraud in UK and four of theft in Northern Ireland
PORTLAND — A convicted scammer who claimed to be an Irish heiress and who is accused of stealing tens of thousands of dollars from several victims should be extradited to the United Kingdom, a federal court has ruled.
US Magistrate Judge John Nivison ruled on Thursday that there is sufficient evidence to certify Smyth’s extradition to the UK to face charges. Nivison wrote that Smyth will be in custody of the US Marshals Service pending a decision on extradition by Secretary of State Antony Blinken. The judge’s ruling that Smyth should be extradited could help bring about the end of a bizarre saga in which victims have painted Smyth as a master of disguise and a veteran traveling grifter.
“The evidence presented regarding Ms Smyth’s interactions with and transactions involving the individuals ... is sufficient to sustain the four fraud charges and the four theft charges that are the subject of the extradition request,” Nivison wrote.
