This question was not a cheap shot but one that was asking you that if in the same position as the US government what would you want. Would he/she be tried where the crime was committed based on your country of residence or the country were he/she was resident at the time. He might not have committed in the eyes of our judicial system but has gone through due process for extradition to the country that views it as a serious defence. If I threw a brick through the window of a house in England I would be tried and convicted in England even if I planned it here were i live in Scotland. It is possible to be in Scotland and still throw the brick over the border at a house so should I get away with it because I lobbed it from my side of the border?
