US fighter pilot avoids British trial after raping a woman in England

Also the article seems to imply the UK does better at trying rape than the US military. I doubt that.

But then there's a major issue of the judiciary and police not really doing their jobs properly, so it doesn't surprise me that this happened.

They were treated differently from those not of the church.

This case just happens to remind me.

I would also presume there's some mutual law where if a foreign military member is on another countries soil (if you're in the military you can't just go on holiday to a foreign country without extra paperwork) that allows counties to retain their military courts jurisdiction even on foreign soil.

That doesn't mean he gets off - just that the trial would be under US MP law. To be honest, the consequences of which would be higher for him than under UK law.
