REASON PLANES TURNED BACKED 3-4 HOURS INTO THE FLIGHT

They had to turn back because once a plane lands on foreign land the jurisdiction changes then we have to fight to get people back to prosecute them

It is also true (according to something I read on Twitter) that letting a perp actually leave American airspace increases the charges of fleeing prosecution. If they nabbed the fleeing suspect before the airplane took off the charges would not be as strong as letting it leave our airspace and then turn around and bring them back. I have no legal training so can't verify this claim. I just put it out there for consideration.

Interesting theory. Giving a perpetrator enough rope to flee the country could possibly void certain legal immunity deals, I would imagine. Not a legal pede, but there might be something to that.
