Re: extraditing
It is very unlikely that the Florida charges when and if he is convicted of them, will run concurrently. Each jurisdiction has the right to seek punishment based upon the crimes and circumstances behind the offence occuring in each location or date. Since the crime in Florida was not the same as in New York the results from the Florida case will be on their own time table rather than currently with New York.
