A saudi avation student? Gee. Based on what we know about them, why we ought to be able to trust him right?
/s
I'm loving the part about the Saudi government posting bail.
Hey. If muslim money was good enough to pay for Obama's college, then why not bail?
~Sheesh~

Just wait until Moo waltzes in with a guy from the consulate. The IRS is pulling this judge’s file as we speak.

I'm good with the concept of "held without bail" -- sometimes that may be appropriate.
If you set bail at $2M, you kind of send the message: "Ha! You'll never come up with that! Good luck!"
And if they DO come up with $2M?? Well, the obvious conclusion is that the court's attempt at levying excessive bail has failed, and they need to go to Plan B which is to refuse to release.
The only problem: The Constitution is pretty clear on the concept of "excessive bail" and this particular case is an ideal example of that in action.

'she feared the government would deport him to Saudi Arabia, a U.S.
ally, before he could go to trial.'
Lol. Saudi Arabia has no extradition treaty with US.

First degree murder is not capital murder? This whole controversy would go away if the prosecutor would just refile the charges as a capital murder.

You would think that contract killing are at least.

Should have set bail at 10 trillion dollars and set up a nice rainy day fund for Missouri taxpayers. (Kidding - Kind of)
I say release him. He posted the bond.

Wasn’t the Saudi that flew out after the Boston bombing connected to aviation, too?

All these Saudi aviation students and now Saudi has free rein to all our airports. What could go wrong.
This reminds me of that trust game. I forget what it is called. One person gives you something of theirs that is of value and trusts you to tote it around or whatever, then comes your turn to show your trust....well your valuable never comes back.

” How is an aviation student not a flight risk?”
Probably because he’s learning how to take off, but not to land.
To: Responsibility2nd
WTH??? We got MORE Saudi “aviation students” here!!! Isn’t there an adult ANYWHERE anymore?
