According to the lawyer:
“What evidence is there that he’s a flight risk other than that he lives in another country?” he asked, adding he did not think it would be difficult to bring the defendant back on a warrant.
Being a resident of another country should be enough reason, especially for such a heinous crime. I’d also think being a supposed cyber security expert who attends black hat conferences might know how to evade surveillance and capture better than most.
But the kicker is that he thought Israel will extradite him back here no biggie. What an idiot - and that’s the charitable assumption.
According to jpost:
Israeli media quoted the Prime Minister’s Office as denying that Alexandrovich was arrested, saying only that a “state employee” was “questioned by American authorities during his stay” and he had “returned to Israel as scheduled.”

I guess the US is getting some of the treatment they’ve been dishing to other countries when one of their government employees or military members commits a crime there.
Like that one lady in the UK that killed a teenager in a car crash. Or that one US Embassy employee that failed to stop at a stop sign and killed a famous local musician in Romania. He was acquitted of manslaughter in the US. Or when two American pilots in Italy cut the cable of an aerial lift by flying too low and caused the deaths of 20 people. They were also found not guilty of manslaughter in the US. And many other similar stories from around the world.
Apparently now it’s not cool when people commit crimes in your country and use diplomatic immunity to avoid justice.
The US is and always has been a huge dick when it comes to the behavior of Americans abroad.
Bush set up a law allowing the US to invade the Netherlands if any US military member was held there to be tried by the ICC. Let’s just ignore the fact that if you’re held there that you’re extremely likely a real monster who committed horrendous war crimes, in the US a court will simply declare you innocent and that’s that.
“It was a totally normal bail amount. Nothing to get worked up about. Frankly, I think that people should be more upset that we vacated the charges.”
Fuck Israel, genocidal scum!
