But maybe that individual should not.

If it happened in Russia I would agree if he broke Russian laws while in Russia, he should face Russian consequences. It all seems really simple to me. If you commit a crime in a foreign country you are typically subject to their laws.

I didn't know American law applied in foreign countries. Interesting

On May 1, 2023, Lira was arrested for violating Article 436-2 of Ukraine's criminal code, which prohibits justification of Russia's ongoing invasion of the country.[8][38]

Also it's on the wiki

I'm not up on Ukrainian law, and really, really don't care about this dude. Any point you have is wasted on me.

Article doesn't even mention his death lol. Yea, he was a prisoner, for committing a crime. Seems like a case of FAFO to me. And certainly no big loss.

Well that's certainly not what the Wikipedia article I linked says. He died of pneumonia. Do you have a differing source?

Are you implying those two things are related?
