Guam - Christopher Woodrome appeared in the Superior Court late this afternoon for extradition proceedings. The 30-year-old has been in jail awaiting a court hearing after he turned himself in to police on Saturday. Woodrome faces multiple counts of criminal sexual conduct and kidnapping in New Mexico. He was indicted last year and never showed up to answer to the charges.

Instead, New Mexico authorities believed he had fled to Guam. The Attorney General's Office was waiting for the paperwork to begin the extradition process.

Details from today's hearing were not available as of news time.
