C.R.S. Section 16-19-107
Extradition of persons not present where crime committed


(1)

The governor of this state may also surrender, on demand of the executive authority of any other state, any person in this state charged in such other state in the manner provided in section 16-19-104 with committing an act in this state, or in a third state, intentionally resulting in a crime in the state whose executive authority is making the demand, and the provisions of this article 19 that are not otherwise inconsistent apply to such cases, even though the accused was not in that state at the time of the commission of the crime and has not fled therefrom, provided the acts for which extradition is sought would be punishable by the laws of this state if the acts occurred in this state.

(2)

Except as required by federal law, the governor shall not surrender a person charged in another state as a result of the person engaging in a legally protected health-care activity, as defined in section 12-30-121 (1)(d), unless the executive authority of the demanding state alleges in writing that the accused was physically present in the demanding state at the time of the commission of the alleged offense and that thereafter the accused fled from the demanding state.
