Can a jury in China indict me here in the US? Is enforcement of indictments from other countries down to treaties between the indicter and indictee?

- ryanlol 9y agoChina can indict you in China. US probably won't extradite you to China to face charges, but there's nothing to stop China from kidnapping you from e.g. Thailand if you ever decide to go to that part of the world.
- flashdance 9y agoIf you're curious why this guy is being indicted in California in the first place, IIRC it appears that he laundered some of his money at the now-defunct San Francisco based exchange Tradehill. As well, BTC-E did business with Americans which is a big no-no if you don't have KYC and AML compliance.
