Petition Action

Approve Mr Duane Chapman's Visa Application to enter the UK

Additional Information

Mr Duane Chapman is an American bounty hunter, who has been refused entry to the UK on the grounds of a criminal conviction over 35 years ago.

Since his conviction, he has become one of the world's most famous bounty hunters, capturing over 7,000 criminals.

He has applied for a visa a number of times, and has always been denied.

We would like to ask that his visa be approved, as his actions, charity work and media appearances should deem his 35 year old conviction as insignificant.

A person entering our country shouldn't always be judge purely on their distant past.
