    Does the US not have an extradition treaty with Scotland? Shouldn’t convicted felons typically be arrested and sent back to their country for processing? 🤔

      Britain does not extradite to the US without an ironclad guarantee they won’t be their true backward colonial selves and apply the death penalty.

      Nah, if you can just incarcerate him, that’d be great. Don’t need to send him back or anything. If that’s not okay, I know a few places that might take him in South America

        Be sure to put him on suicide watch. Wouldn’t want anything to happen to him in prison.

          That’s all right we have this incredibly high quality one frame per minute CCTV camera pointed at him. A minute should be safe enough
