Facing an extradition hearing Jan. 21 and the all-but-certain prospect of delivery to American authorities, Emery has cut a deal with U.S. prosecutors to serve his sentence in Canada. He also hopes it will save his two co-accused -- Michelle Rainey and Greg Williams. The three were arrested in August 2005 at the request of the United States. - --- MAP posted-by: Jay Bergstrom
