Re: The CPS argument is fallacious
"If it was in the US then it's still a crime, whether or not it is legal elsewhere."
I think the best way to alter this analogy to fit the Lauri Love case is to say, an Indian man with his pregnant teenage wife comes to the USA and is arrested for having sex with a minor on the basis that her being pregnant is evidence of the crime and she (the evidence) is in the USA even though the action that generated the evidence was committed elsewhere.
To make it more accurate, make it a British man with an underage pregnant girl who both come to the USA. Again the evidence of the crime is in the USA, but the actual crime was committed elsewhere, though now it was crime in the original location too. Should a prosecution for sex with a minor be sought in the USA where the evidence is but no criminal action has been committed, or in the UK where the actual action (no pun intended) took place.
