Re: Perplexed
@Dr.T: More to the point, in the US, it's a Constitutional right where criminal charges are concerned.

Re: Verizon / yahoo
@Dr.T: The purchase of Yahoo was more for Yahoo's content assets than for its systems or user base. I don't think VZ particularly cares that much otherwise.

Verizon / yahoo
Now that Verizon owns yahoo, do we think the security of their infrastructure and systems are any better?

"especially if his assets are frozen" That would be very good, there has to be a precedence set for this case.

" a speedy trial could well be to his benefit" Agree. Speedy trial will benefit everybody, including Yahoo.

Re: Perplexed
"expedite extradition to be tried in the US" I agree, this should be done quite easily for many countries but when it comes to Russia it may not be that easy.

Suspect ?
I did not know there was suspect on this issue, that is good, he can plead not guilty that will not change final outcome if he is at fault.

Re: Perplexed
@Ryan: I definitely see your point, but if he really is innocent and believes he will be exonerated, a speedy trial could well be to his benefit -- especially if his assets are frozen. There may be other factors at play, too. Who knows?

I find it quite odd that you would expedite extradition to be tried in the US, especially when you intended to plead innocent.
