  - I googled what would have happened. Mexico has extradition back to the US. I'd have gone to Fla, rented a fishing boat and fled to Cuba. they have NO - Peglegpete May 17, 14:40 9
    - Central America would be easier. Belize is where the criminals go, right? -- nm - loosilu May 17, 14:42 8
      - Belize has extradition to the US. Cuba is the only close country by hundreds of miles with none and is only 90 miles by boat. no busy airports or - Peglegpete May 17, 14:53 7
        
        There's one country in Central America that's known for it. Could have sworn it was Belize. Anyone know? -- nm - loosilu May 17, 14:54 6
        
        Costa Rica I think. Local guy from Canada fled there. If they don’t have one with us doubt they have one with US. -- nm - VMan May 17, 15:18 5
        
        Oh you're right! and super American friendly. ETA meaning easy for Anglophones. -- nm* - loosilu May 17, 15:21 4
        
        Even if they have a treaty, I believe with enough money they will not enforce it. -- nm - VMan May 17, 15:22 3
        
        exactly. they don't give a shit. and a lot of time it's really really hard to find people with a house in the dense jungle. -- nm - loosilu May 17, 15:27 2
        
        Or a suite at the casino. -- nm - VMan May 17, 15:54 1
        
        The room numbe3rs don't make any sense. -- nm - loosilu May 17, 16:08

    - any convicted federal defendant -- nm - hollywood big shot May 17, 14:30 7
      - What I'm really asking is, what about defendants who for multiple reasons cannot or should not walk free in the interim? -- nm - loosilu May 17, 14:44 4
        
        they're just in federal custody until sentencing -- nm - hollywood big shot May 17, 14:52 3
        
        I assume there must be a decision made about who is held in custody or not? -- nm - loosilu May 17, 14:55 2
        
        threat to the community and/or flight risk -- nm - hollywood big shot May 17, 14:58 1
        
        ah, makes sense, thanks! -- nm - loosilu May 17, 15:03
      - Say it's a serial killer. What happens before they go to federal prison? They stay in a state prison? - loosilu May 17, 14:34 1
        
        (also terrorists, multiple escapees, etc) -- nm - loosilu May 17, 14:35
