Re: US Diplomat's wife kills biker in UK then flees country :(

This would happen readily in an ideal world.

We don't live in one though. People act in irrational and selfish ways at times. That's not even taking into account the additional international...

Re: US Diplomat's wife kills biker in UK then flees country :(

Exactly.

The guy is a US spook. They're not exactly known for parading their credentials openly, for rather obvious reasons.

Re: US Diplomat's wife kills biker in UK then flees country :(

Where's the source for the claim that this guy (and more importantly, his wife) never had diplomatic immunity? Neither you or mikelincs have substantiated that as yet. Then there's also mikelincs...

Re: US Diplomat's wife kills biker in UK then flees country :(

No idea. Maybe Interpol have a procedure for detaining people in those kinds of circumstances, and perhaps lansbury or someone else in the know might be able to explain.

Re: US Diplomat's wife kills biker in UK then flees country :(

They "let her leave" because, as she had diplomatic immunity, the law didn't allow the UK government to prevent her from leaving.



Even if they had known (doubtful), it wouldn't have changed...

Re: US Diplomat's wife kills biker in UK then flees country :(

It will be over before it's even begun. She has no intention of ever returning to the UK voluntarily, and the US will outright refuse to sanction the extradition request, meaning that nothing will...

Re: US Diplomat's wife kills biker in UK then flees country :(

I worked at Upper Heyford for a time in the 1990's and driving was on the left, just as it is in any other part of the UK. It's worth remembering that, at least AFAIK, "US bases" in the UK are still...

Re: US Diplomat's wife kills biker in UK then flees country :(

It stinks of course, and my sympathy lies with the family of the victim. The US will refuse to hand her over and the UK can't really do anything to force the issue. It will be smoothed over behind...
