On a Sunday morning in Miami, the arc of consequence caught up with Andrew and Tristan Tate as U.S. Marshals intercepted them en route to a public spectacle, executing a sealed extradition warrant at the request of British prosecutors. The arrest — coordinated across two legal systems and an ocean — suggests that the machinery of international law, however slow, does eventually arrive. What charges await them in Britain remains largely sealed, but the moment marks a turning point in a legal story that has long simmered beneath the surface of their public lives.
