    Lol, what kind of nonsense is “Hey, famous on-camera assassin of the elite: just emigrate?”

    To where? You want him to go join Snowden as a hostage of the Russian state, trotted out for PR statements?

    Obviously, Luigi is an innocent man, but that doesn’t mean immigration is going to approve him.

      It’s not nonsense at all, you can move to another country to make them try to sue you internationally which most of the time they won’t bother with. That and they’d have to track you down in the new country, it complicates things for them more than for you. Even just moving to Canada is a significant legal hurdle for them.

      And I’m saying this post-trial not currently or as a criminal. If he’s found guilty, yeah he’d have to go to Russia. But if he’s found innocent and they’re pestering him, he has options is all I’m saying.
