Terrorism gets the Salem treatment

I've been wondering for a little while, when this would happen.

I also wonder what crimes the perpetrator committed. Let's start with libel (which he's been charged with), defamation and - probably - wasting police time.

None of these crimes are subject to extradition arangements, so unless a prosecution is brought in Sweden or the perpetrator ever visits the US, chances are he'll get away scot free.

Even then, libel charges against individuals, tend not to result in major punishments.

I hope the FBI and TSA are able to remove whatever "suspected terrorist, watch for" flags from the son-in-law's records...
