I ain't whippin' no one. I just want to know if, in fact, this Pricnce actually is in the State Department's little blue book of people with Diplomatic Immunity Status. I know heads of state get it just on principle, but he's not a "Head of State" - his daddy is. So, I'm curious if he even has it. ;0)


But either way, I agree with the assessment that he didn't follow established protocol, so he can kiss my rosy red butt, immunity or not...

I did a little surfing, and as far as I can tell, here's the scoop..

Since his father is "head of state", i.e., King of Spain, as a "family member", he has Diplomatic status, and the same Diplomatic Immunity as his daddy...
Unless the U.S. State Department declares him "persona non grata"..
I doubt very much whether the US State Dept. is gonna do that..
The Crown Prince seems to have not only a very good reputation, but apparently is just as important in europe as Prince Charles of England..
I have no doubt he has diplomatic credentials of his own, completely independent of his father's..

He's got a sister (princess-type) that often lives in the U.S. as well.. good looking woman..
