I would not wish 3rd world incarceration on anyone I know nothing about...
"We can’t have an American people that violate the law and then just walk away from it."
Nor would I wish 1st world incarceration on any of the 'criminals' NYC catches who forgot to empty their pockets.
What about anyone of us..what about to guy with the EMPTY shotgun shell... BSCompletely reverse the situation. An Indian police officer is in NY visiting and makes the same mistake in JFK. Does NY drop the charges? I think not.
I'd love to see what argument they use to try and get this guy off - and then have some lawyers turn around and use it against NY and NYC once they prove it works.
Given the stupidity level there - NYC might just provide the rope that gets used to hang themselves.
