The UK won't extradite for any crime that carries the death penalty, because they believe the death penalty is inhumane. I believe that accounts for all of their denials.

Not quite all. There was also the case of Gary McKinnon whose extradition was denied because the UK believed he would commit suicide if extradited.

If you pressure someone into killing themselves I don't think you get to say that isn't murder.
