He has committed a crime and, as such, should have to face the consequences of his actions. The law is the law - there isn't a seperate law for each disability. I'm a mum to two boys with autism and I am sympathetic to what his fears are regarding the extradition. However, even though he as aspergers, surely his parents taught him right from wrong. Autism is not an excuse for bad manners or for doing the wrong thing. With intervention, the person can learn how to cope with their obsessions and with everything else that goes with autism. In all honesty, I hope that it all goes well for him and that he can cope with the consequences of his actions as it will be a very good learning exercise for him - he will know not to do it again and he can be an example to others of what not to do! =) And that’s right.
