Having seen the way the US backed out of ratifying the US/UK Extradition treaty and still expect the UK to turn over anyone the US want, most countries wont bother listening to the US.

Just to reiterate, Amanda Knox trial - Italy Roman Polanski - France and Switzerland.

You appear to have also overlooked in the Polanski case the fact he did undergo trial and thought a bargain had been reached by the reduction of charges and probation and treatment in a clinic at the courts order. The judge then indicated to Polankski's attroney that he had changed his mind and though jail and deportation to be a more suitable punishment even though the prosecuting attorney asked for probation.

Even the prosecuting attorney stated that Polanski's treatment at the hands of a fame hungry judge was unfair. France doesnt have an extradition treaty with the US and Switzerland stated that Polanski had indeed served his original sentence.

Cant wait to read the garbage you will write in defence of the US legal system regarding extradition in rebuttal.

tell me how it was unfair. he drugged and rapped a child by his own admission. Tell me what YOU think is a fair punishment for drugging and RAPING a child. having sex with a CHILD that is unconcious on drugs that he gave her,. please tell me what YOU think would be a fair punishment.!

I'm curious to know.

I'd like to know what punishment you think is fair if it was your daughter who was drugged and raped.

An old man gave drugs to a child and then had sex with the child while the child was unconscious., what punishment do YOU think would be fair???

Please explain how thew US justice system is wrong for demanding he pay for that crime. Tell me what YOU think would be fair punishment.

Please tell me what is the "fair" punishment for someone who RAPES A CHILD. You tell me.
