If he actually is innocent, then you can't blame him though can you? If they didn't get him for that, the US would get him for something else. I dare say a lot

I dare say a lot of people would probably take a similar approach if given the opportunity.
- tssva 10y agoThe US isn't getting him for anything. The US has filed no charges against him. He is wanted by Sweden to answer questions regarding rape allegations and not regarding any charges in the US. His claim that the rape allegations are a setup by the US make little sense. If the US were to set him up in order to have him extradited from another country Sweden would be far down the list of countries to chose. The terms of Sweden's extradition laws and previous court rulings on extradition cases make it very unlikely the US would be successful in extraditing him. His behavior strikes me more as that of someone guilty and desperate to avoid punishment. Maybe I am wrong but he could have cleared the whole thing up long ago by returning to Sweden.
- dragonwriter 10y agoYeah, it would be more likely that the US would extradite directly from the UK then try to get Sweden to extradite him on some pretext so that they could get him from Sweden.
