'Survivor' producer Bruce Beresford-Redmann arrested in California

LOS ANGELES (BNO NEWS) - 'Survivor' producer Bruce Beresford-Redman, who is accused of murdering his wife Monica in Cancun earlier this year, was arrested on Tuesday pursuant to a provisional arrest request from the government of Mexico.

Monica was found dead on April 8 in the sewer of the swanky Moon Palace resort in Cancun, where the couple was vacationing. A witness at the hotel reported seeing the couple arguing days before the murder, and Bruce - who reportedly had scratches on his body - was immediately named as the prime suspect.

Beresford-Redman days later left the country.

He was arrested without incident at his Rancho Palos Verdes residence by the United States Marshals Regional Fugitive Task Force and the FBI, the U.S. Attorney's Office for Central District of California said.

The arrest was made after a United States Magistrate Judge on Friday signed an arrest warrant sought in conjunction with the filing of a complaint which outlines Mexico's case against Beresford Redman.

Mexico law states that a person convicted of homicide would be sentenced to a prison term between 12 and 30 years, but it may increase if Beresford-Redman is charged and then convicted of aggravated murder.

According to reports, Beresford-Redman had bought two life insurance policies for each member of his family, just days before they left for Mexico.

Bruce was the co-creator and executive producer of MTV's 'Pimp My Ride' and is a former producer of the hit CBS show 'Survivor.'
