Verifying SOP, but still a puzzling exception
Via ZH, rich Saudi dickheads treat the US as their red-light district. After they're caught and out on bail, they simply head for home. One of them was at EWU in Cheney.
Most of the listed crimes follow a pattern of trapping and fucking. When I served on a jury in 2014, we were handling a similar rich Saudi dickhead with a similar crime. I wondered at the time why he hadn't been shipped back, because deportation or removal was known to be the normal procedure in such cases. I guessed that his parents didn't want him; or perhaps he had committed other crimes in Saudi, so jailtime here would be better than execution there.
His defense lawyer was so cartoonishly incompetent that the latter explanation made sense. Rich dickheads can afford excellent lawyers. An excellent lawyer can guarantee a guilty verdict if he's paid for it.
Rich dickheads everywhere escape punishment, usually because persecutors won't even touch the case. When you have lots of money you don't need to spend it.
