When I was in the USN in the 70's, we left one of our guys behind in an Italian prison for drugs. He was still there my next cruise.
One of the brats on my round the world cruise in 1970 got 25 years in a Dutch prison for trafficking in LSD. He and his wealthy Daddy were horrified to find out that there is NO BAIL in Dutch prisons, or was not back then anyway. We were all told before we landed in every country that we were subject to the laws of the country we were going to and the American Embassy could only call our parents and get us a lawyer. That was IT.
But of course all teenagers and college kids think The Man is only trying to spoil their fun ...
