If we insist on breaking the laws of other countries, these are the consequences. We could have asked for their government to arrest and extradict, but that would have required evidence. Cooperation between police agencies have long been proven more effective than cowboy antics.

Also, why is it that Spanish and Italian court systems are doing the job we should be doing ourselves? Is our judiciary that corrupt that we cannot prosecute crimes committed by our own government? - swissfizz, on 11/04/2009, -0/+5Apart from the fact the article mentions the Italians they managed to find complacent in this case were also found guilty. Their superiors of course got away with it, just as the CIA agents superiors did....
