[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It makes no difference whether the US is willing to extradite Lochte.  It will prevent Lochte from traveling to any country that has an extradition treaty with Brazil because he may face a demand that another country who may be less reluctant to extradite him to comply with Brazil's demand.

Lochte will be best off to work out what is tantamount to a plea bargain with the Brazilian authorities if the prosecutor decides to accept the Brazilian police's recommendation. He really does not want this sword hanging over his head ready to drop at any moment.[/quote]

I think he's fine ignoring all of this IF he is done swimming. Presumably he isn't done -- bc otherwise why is he getting a sponsorship from the cough drop company? If he isn't done swimming, he needs the ability to travel internationally bc swimming championships happen all over the world and that's how they keep up with the competition during the off years so that they are competitive for Olympic trials and the Olympics. World championships this year are in Canada; in Hungary in 2017; in China in 2018; and in South Korea in 2019 followed by the 2020 Games in Japan.

Though if I were him I wouldn't be heading back to Brazil to deal with this -- there's a good chance they throw him in jail just to show the world they can. Can't part of the plea bargain be -- we will settle with you/pay fines/do community service if required but we will do it thru the Brazilian consulate in the U.S. -- we are not stepping foot in Brazil??[/quote]
