Can anyone explain to me, in nice simple English, why we shouldn't be extraditing a convicted hacker to the country where he commited the crime?  It really does seem like an open and shut case to me, and I'm baffled why some people seem to think it's wrong.

I'm clearly missing something - can someone explain it to me?

I should add to the aspergers/autism bit - we don't try spectrum people fairly in the UK either. But we're better than the US and we're improving rapidly too. My mum is actually doing a lot of work on improving trials for dyslexics and that crosses over into this area, so I hear quite a lot about this from them. :)
