Ronley Floyd Bynoe, a Guyanese national, has been formally extradited to the United States to confront serious criminal charges including bank fraud, misuse of a Social Security Number, and aggravated identity theft. The extradition proceeded on Wednesday, March 4th, 2026, after Bynoe voluntarily waived his legal right to contest the transfer.
According to a statement from Guyana’s Director of Public Prosecutions, Shalimar Ali-Hack, Bynoe was transported under secure escort from the Georgetown Camp Street Prison to the Cheddi Jagan International Airport late Tuesday night. At approximately 1:30 AM, he was formally handed over to two U.S. Marshals and placed on an American Airlines flight bound for the United States.
The legal pathway for his extradition was set in motion when U.S. authorities, having secured a grand jury indictment in the District Court for the Northern District of Ohio in September 2023, discovered Bynoe had fled to Guyana. An investigation confirmed his location, prompting an official extradition request from the U.S. government to Guyana’s Ministry of Home Affairs in November 2025.
Following legal consultations with the DPP’s office, Guyana’s Minister of Home Affairs, Oneidge Walrond, signed an Authority to Proceed on February 16th, 2026, under the nation’s Fugitive Offenders Act. Bynoe was subsequently arrested by local police on February 18th and brought before Acting Chief Magistrate Faith McGusty. During the court proceeding, he was informed of the charges and consented to his extradition, forgoing formal court proceedings to challenge the request.
