Former Survivor producer, Bruce Beresford-Redman's extradition case in connection with the murder of his wife, Monica, has been formally given to U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, RadarOnline.com is exclusively reporting.

Monica's murder took place in Cancun, Mexico, while the family was on vacation. Her body was found on April 8, 2010, in a sewer at the hotel the couple was staying at. Before any American citizen is extradited to a foreign country to face prosecution, the Secretary of State has to sign off on it.

Bruce has been charged with aggravated homicide in the State of Quintana Roo, in Mexico. The extradition papers allege that "(Bruce) Beresford-Redman had an affair with a co-worker for several months in at least 2009. He lied to the victim about it for months. The victim learned of Beresford Redman's infidelity when she discovered text messages between Beresford Redman and the co-worker."

The producer's lawyers have said they plan to appeal Judge Jacqueline Chooljian's decision, and that process could take about a year. However, legal experts concede that it's inevitable that Beresford-Redman will be extradited back to Mexico.
