The thing is that the crime was done against the US therefore it is tried under US laws which is why they must extradite him to the US.

The law works that way even within our states. The state that the crime is done in is where they have to actually be arrested after extradition. We are dealing with 43 counts of horse abuse against a father & daughter. The father came back after abandoning the horses. The daughter left the state. In this case because only a misdemeanor they won't extradite her back to this state but if she ever shows up here, she will be arrested & charged with the crime in the state it was committed. National laws bring them back to the country the crime was committed against. It's the agreements that countries have made for enforcing penalties against criminal action.

The fact that he has Aspergers has nothing to do with the crime....a broken law is a broken law no matter who does it & isn't an excuse for not having the moral character not to have done it.
