subject: extra-territorial jurisdiction coming back to bite the US

From: Adam <""4thwormcastfromthemolehill\"{at}the field.near
the bridge">

I said that the problem with the US legal authorities getting
extra-territorial jurisdiction would be that once the precedent was set
then others would join in & eventually....

Well eventually is now....

"An Italian judge has ordered a US marine to face trial over the death
of an Italian intelligence agent in a car at a checkpoint in Baghdad.

The agent, Nicola Calipari, 51, was shot dead as he escorted Giuliana
Sgrena to the airport after she was freed by kidnappers in March 2005.

Mario Lozano will face a charge of murder in a case that has put serious
strain on US-Italian relations.

He will probably be tried in absentia as he has been cleared in the US.

Spec Lozano is indicted for murder and attempted murder."

Yet another US gov employee on a watch list wrt international travel.
