I agree with this, just with a caveat. Any good he did was wiped out when he not only allegedly committed rape, but then ran from the investigation looking in to the accusation, ran to another country which, as has been discussed before, was more likely to extradite him to the US, then ran from justice in that country as well.

Sorry, I just don't buy the "falsely-accused-only-perfect-person-in-the-entire-world-surrounded-by-corrupt-nations-all-of-whom-do-the-US's-bidding-at-the-drop-of-a-hat" gimmick he's trying to portray. For me, the US issue was always a smokescreen to avoid the rape allegation. If extradition to the US was his concern, he was far safer in Sweden.

I guess the point is, it doesn't matter how much good you do, it doesn't make you above the law.
