Kill, then claim Immunity.

Kill, then claim Immunity.
As an American this just makes me ill.

"A U.S. diplomat’s wife killed a British teen in a wrong-way collision, police say. She claimed immunity and fled the U.K."

I don't have an anger problem, I have an idiot problem.

You obviously don't spend much time in New York City, home of the United Nations.

We'll see if our 'special' relationship counts for anything. She said she had no plans to leave and then claimed immunity, what a fucking disgrace.

We will turn her over for trial in Britain if the MI5 publishes trump's tax returns.

RE: Kill, then claim Immunity.
A friend of mine that is a traffic cop, told me that a diplomat, shitfaced (traffic cops can tell) caused an accident (no injuries, just material damage). The guy presented his diplomatic card and he couldn't run the alcohol test on him after that, on penalty of disciplinary action. The guy even was an asshhole to him and his patrol partner.

So, its true that there are 1st class and 2nd class citizens. Take notice that when there is a traffic accident, all intervinients are bound to do a drug and alcohol test, well, at least those second class citizens.

A foreign diplomat is not a citizen.

Immunity of the accredited envoy from host judiciary is a basic tenant of diplomacy that dates to time immemorial.   It exists to prevent envoy from being pressured by his negotiating partner pressing charges against him personally.


However, it is also customary for the envoy's country to later waive diplomatic immunity when it is clear the envoy likely committed a serious crime, particularly if the act is criminal in both the host country and the envoy's own country.

That'd be SIS, probably.

Dear United Kingdom. Grant me Diplomatic Immunity. I'll have your problem solved quickly.
"Tradition" is just a word people use to make themselves feel better about being an asshole.
