Any way are good for having a long term visa ! See the bright side, even the accomodation is free !
btw, I am surprised that a country can keep a citizen of another country in jail without provoking diplomatic tension.
 
I am surprised that he hasn't been deported to face trial in his country of birth. Most are sent home rather soon after being charged!

that is the most ridiculous idea any human being has ever thought of

you're basically saying that anyone can just go to a foreign country, commit a crime of his choice, and then be deported to his home country where there is no complainant, therefore no case
 
No there was a law passed that stated Western offenders get deported back to their home countries. Even Japanese are deported back here from what I have read. And then they face trail. They serve their sentence. Something like that. I just read a case like that. The man was detained in Thailand, but returned to the States for trial.

I guess what I don't understand is why he hasn't just been deported. He said that he was alleged to have done this, not that he did it. Usually that ends up as a deportation case or time served. But he's been in limbo for a long time. Amnesty International might help. And why isn't the embassy helping him? Legal council?

I have no expertise, but the deportation option might depend a lot on where he is from, his nationality. Just guessing... It might well depend on the right folks in the local legal system getting paid off appropriately. In some/many Third World countries, bribes are not only common but are the basic system for doing business and getting things done. If he has no one to grease palms for him, the deportation paperwork could easily get lost somewhere in the process...something like that.

I have no expertise either, but from reading the news, I think there is a good chance he can be freed. Let's pray!

Freed or kept in jail

I wouldn't wish either way because I don't have the facts. I'm not sure if he's guilty or not. I wouldn't wish for his freedom if I'm uncertain about his innocence.

I can only guess the answer as to why he hasn't yet been deported. The allegations are serious and the prosecution has solid evidence.

I maybe wrong though.

to put things in perspective,

I keep thinking about the case of Jamelle Cornley, a really arrogant westerner who went mongering on a third world country and thought his money can buy everything there. Turns out the street hookers he hired were smarter and stole P60,000 of his money (this is his salary from playing hoops there). To make matters worse, he created a scene at the police station demanding the police to find his money back quickly. The police detained him for punching one of the officials.

I don't think people should be sympathizing with this kind of behavior.

The lesson here that no one should think they're better than others as this often leads to trouble.

If he has dough for bail, then he's able to bribe. Therefore no one is willing to be bribed.

I'm leaning towards there's a solid case against him

again, I may be wrong

Merry Christmas to all

I think it's based on the extradition agreements between specific countries. That's why sometimes criminals will flee to a specific country that doesn't have an extradition agreement with their home country, making it much harder to get them deported to face trial.
 
Well even though your shituation sucks now, I will pray for you. At the strike of midnight, try to have a Merry Christmas and tune out all the bullshit for a while.
 
It is evident that no one is saying free a man if he is guilty. But what has been iterated is that we hope he is innocent and freed. If he be guilty, then he should pay for his crimes. After serving that time we hope he gets out and turns over a new leaf. None of us would condone the exploitation of minors. None of us would ask for a guilty man to be freed. None of us would cheerlead any cause that supports what is wrong with this world.

Imo, it is first and foremost about habeas corpus. It is a very important right.

In other words, it is wrong for him to be held in prison for such a long period of time without appearing in court and having the legal process move forward. Innocence or guilt is not for us to decide (since we have no way to do so), but either way punishment without due process is unacceptable (though common enough in many countries unfortunately).
