The correct answer is C) the federal government could not force a state governor to return a fugitive.

Until 1987, in cases of extradition, the federal government could not force a state governor to return a fugitive.

With the Supreme Case of "Kentucky vs. Dennison" in 1860, the federal court did not have the authority to demand the return of a fugitive to another state. This changed in 1987 with the resolution of the case "Puerto Rico v. Brandstand," that overruled the "Kentucky vs. Dennison" case.
