Terry:  I believe it is a two-way street.  If a US citizen commits a capital
crime in a foreign country, then he should be subject to that country's
punishment. I also don't think that a US citizen, like Pang, whose arson
caused fire killed three firemen, should be allowed to escape the death
penalty, just because he fled to Argentina which would not extradite him,
unless he would not be subject to the death penalty.

 99 percent of lawyers give the rest a bad name.
