'who fled on a private jet using an illicit passport provided by his country's consulate' after skipping $1M bail

Officials believe Abdulrahman Sameer Noorah, 21, fled the US with help from the Saudi consulate last year.

FBI learned he returned back to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia 18 months ago.

Officials say they are doing everything they can to get a Saudi Arabian murder suspect back to the United States after he fled on board a private jet with the help of his country's consulate.

Obviously there is one law for Saudi nationals & another for the rest of the world. Private planes, illicit passports, high level help. And no extradition treaty between the U.S. & Saudi Arabia. Nice for him but it shows that we can't trust Saudi Arabia.

This is in the "News" now for what reason?

Is there any news to report?

Sounds like Brain Molding.

This is an ongoing Federal investigation involving Saudi Arabia. This article was published yesterday. And this was on ABC News tonight. It's news when the Saudis continue to demonstrate that they are lawless with regard to things going on outside their country.

The Saudi embassy in Washington and its consulate in Los Angeles didn’t respond to requests for comment.

Saudi national charged in fatal hit-and-run of Oregon teen believed to have escaped to Kingdom, report says

Federal authorities reportedly believe Saudi Arabia helped one of its citizens -- who was charged in the fatal hit-and-run of a 15-year-old Oregon girl -- obtain a passport and flee the United States.

Abdulrahman Sameer Noorah was arrested in August 2016 and indicted for first-degree manslaughter, hit-and-run, reckless endangerment and reckless driving after allegedly killing Fallon Smart in Portland.
=================================================
Fox News does not specify the nature of the report but this was on their channel 9 hours ago, so it smells fresh. Homeland Security & the Marshals Service are involved here.

A reasonable solution would be to not allow any Saudi Arabian citizen to enter into or remain in the US until the offender has been returned to US custody. That would likely get their immediate attention.

We so desperately need a journalism upgrade, they used to be better than this.

A journalism upgrade? How much through the game store?

The Boston Herald and New York Post and Washington times should make more of an effort to go national.

The President can't do that. The courts have relinquished him of that authority.

There is one law for illegal aliens and another law for United Citizens. Now, you're complaining about a double standard?

You spent eight years whining about having a "king" and now look at you.

No, the law is the same. Any rich foreign national can do what this guy did.
