So you’re saying any American arrested (rightfully or wrongfully) in another country should have no right to access of consular/embassy officials?

If they commit a crime by entering a country illegally, I'd say that they forfeit all rights.

Depends if he's there illegally in a foreign country with 30 million other Americans who are there illegally. Is he living and working there illegally? Married raising a family and taking advantage of services illegally from the "host" country?
Or shall I consider your question in the context of a hapless tourist who gets lost during a Kremlin tour and ends up in the Lubyanka?

Absolutely, any American entering any country illegally will be dealt with severely by that country on discovery...we are the only idiots on the planet who put out the red carpet for our illegal aliens!
