4D chess stupid libs
The Attorney General of Nevada released him allowing him to escape to Israel. In an unrelated coincidence, she is an Israeli citizen.
In more unrelated news Israel is a safe haven for fugitive paedophiles fleeing the US.
Weird, it's almost as if the Israeli government is full of unethical people 🤔
- The GOP will have him as keynote speaker at their rallies.
  
  Their base is souring on Israel too. Especially the younger generation. And surprise surprise its because their base is filled with antisemites and xenophobes and they've spent a lifetime hearing "Israel does this for the security of the Jewish people".
  Almost like people on the left have been telling liberals and conservatives for decades that equating Israel with "all Jews" was in itself fueling antisemitism.
  Edit: But you're probably right for the "age of concent laws" part.
Prolly like number 6 on the top 10 list of worst things he’s ever done
Tom Artiom Alexandrovich may not be claiming diplomatic immunity now. Maybe the political climate is too turbulent to do so? But does it preclude him from claiming it in the future?
I want to hope he faces the full consequences for his actions. But this country has become so corrupt and full of incompetent leaders, I wouldn’t be surprised if the Pedophile of the United States administration works a "deal" to get the charges silently dropped when Israel or Netanyahu asks for it through a back channel.
- Hes not a diplomat, or related to a diplomat. Hes a director in the Israel's cybersecurity arm. He cant claim any immunity.
  He can try to dodge being deported to the US to face the crimes, but yeah, that will come at a cost. "Kid fuckng" is a sensitivite topic for the GOP right now, so I doubt he will get any really cover.
- He's already back in Israel. He's not facing anything at all.
  
  We have an extradition treaty with Israel which covers the crimes he (allegedly) committed. It's politics now.
“The sexual contact included bringing a condom and taking the decoy to ‘Cirque du Soleil’,” which stages elaborate shows along the Las Vegas Strip, said police documents seen by 8NewsNow.
Huh?
I guess this is just awkwardly phrased, and these are two facets of establishing that a crime has occurred. It explains why the decoy may have requested him to bring a condom in their chat.
I wonder if he also had the Cirque tickets on him when he was arrested at the meetup point.
- Oh look, scumbag male uses his wealth to manipulate a vulnerable female into having sex with him.
"This doesn't look like anything to me."
