An Army private who fled to North Korea before being returned home to the United States last month has been detained by the U.S. military, two officials said Thursday night, and is facing charges including desertion and possessing sexual images of a child.
CSAM. That’s unexpected.
I guess he may have thought living in squalor in North Korea may be preferable to federal prison with that label…
Desertion AND CSAM, that is a very problematic thing to be charged of in prisons indeed. I can’t imagine he will have a good time.
Yep. I don’t remember seeing that bit when he originally fled. Something about assaulting some South Koreans and facing punishment.
This makes trying to flee make a little more sense
They put people who get convicted of CSAM and like crimes into the same cell block, out of genpop.
