Title. I know that he's a fucking high profile criminal in the Empire right now and sooner or later, he's gonna be found - which is, unfortunately, the most likely outcome. However, what are the implications if he is to theoretically defect to a country where the Empire has the least jurisdiction in such as the DPRK? Is it feasible? I mean, I know how the DPRK is known to he strict with immigration and stuff but he is a big fucking enemy against the Imperial Core now so like...
What makes you think they won't catch him? It took the government 12 days to find John Wilkes Booth. Although, the US government does sound like doing shit like you mentioned considering how dystopian and fascist it is.
John Wilkes Booth was a famous actor, he couldn't hide forever. No one knows who this person is and police only solve 60% of murder cases.
Imo the killer may not have even left the country. Leaving the state would probably be enough.
John Wilkes Booth couldn't be on the other side of the planet in 12 days though. It took them 12 days to find him in like a 30 mile radius.
