    I understand the burden of proof but the guy isn't in a court.

    He travelled to an area known for sex trafficking and was caught in a hotel room with 2 children he had no earthly connection to and was arrested by police. He decided to bolt the country knowing what he had done was wrong.

    It amazing how you keep jumping to different arguments defending the guy when you realise just how fucking tenuous your point is.

    Let's examine something else here: nowhere have you shown one iota of concern for those children. Nothing about living in an area with obvious poverty that they are easily swept up by sex tourists and abused.

    Not anything for the sex workers who are suffering the brunt of the fallout from this with the police chief using it to beat them with.

    You're only concern is for an American, very likely white collar worker who has travelled overseas to an area known for sex trafficking and has been caught in a hotel with two children.

    That is where your concern lays.
