According to who? I don't buy it.
It was reported on by Legal Mindset, who at least has the contacts to know since he does a lot of traveling and works as a visa lawyer in Thailand and S. Korea. It was that he tried to go to the US Embassy and they are the ones who told him that his crimes were not of a political persecution, so he would have to face his fate.
At least for me, I am willing to buy it, since it isnt like he is the first, last, or only American who has faced legal repercussions overseas for crimes they committed. See also: Vitaly, currently slumming it up in a Filipino jail, with no sign of potential relief from the US.
I can believe Johnny went to an embassy begging for help. I don't buy the idea that Trump offered help.
Ah, I was just unclear then. I was not saying Trump offered help, it was that Johnny went begging to the Embassy.
