He won’t be charged...how could he? He’s a diplomat anyway, so how could he be?
He could be charged if the Qatar government agreed to waive his diplomatic immunity, if the US government requested that. But why bother? He’d only get a slap on the wrist here anyway. Do you really want your tax dollars paying for this guy to sit around watching TV for a couple of months in a US prison? Qatar will get him out of our country forthwith and hand him over to his daddy, who is presumably some mildly important business or government official, since that’s the only explanation for how such an immature jerk could have landed a plum assignment to the US.
He can't be charged with a crime, but he can be charged.
Send him the bill for scrambling 2 F-16's.
Maybe he will find that 'funny', just like the joke he made about lighting his shoes.
Also BAN him from flights on any domestic airline, due to his violating the rules against smoking on a plane.
The perp caused the problem, the Embassy should pay.
