It's unfortunate he's batshit crazy right now or he could probably get the US Embassy involved and fight his extradition and asked that he be deported back to the US, instead of Belize.
- DanBC 14y agoHe's evading a US lawsuit. He doesn't want to go back to the US.
- learc83 14y agoI think I'd rather be back in the US facing a civil action, than on trial for murder in Belize.
- DanBC 14y agoWouldn't that be worst of both worlds? Going through civil action and then being extradited to Belize to face criminal trial?
- wilfra 14y agoExcept in very rare circumstances, the United States does not extradite its citizens to face criminal charges in other countries. @learc83: exactly. if he wasn't having a psychotic episode, he'd realize that. unfortunately his mind is probably telling him that somehow going to Belize > going to the US.
- DanBC 14y ago> Except in very rare circumstances, the United States does not extradite its citizens to face criminal charges in other countries. Wait, what, really? They've been pitching a fit about Gary McKinnon, Christopher Tappin, Assange, etc. I guess I should pay more attention to the laws of other nations.
- wilfra 14y agoNone of those guys are American citizens and they are all wanted for breaking US laws - very different than a US citizen being wanted in Belize. The US loves to have foreign nationals who have violated US laws extradited to the United States, as well as having US citizens who have broken US laws extradited to the US - but it rarely honors extradition requests of its own citizens to other countries. So if you are an American wanted abroad, the safest place you can be is in the United States - assuming of course that you are not also wanted in the US.
- illuminate 14y ago"They've been pitching a fit about" The difference is that America answers to no one.
