From an article in today's Las Vegas Review-Journal:
The federal government said Monday that it didnt intervene in the case of an Israeli government official who was arrested in a multi-agency operation that targeted alleged child sex predators in the Las Vegas Valley. Tom Artiom Alexandrovich, posted $10,000 in bail with no apparent conditions on Aug. 7, shortly after his arrest, according to court records.
The cybersecurity official then returned home, prompting social media users to accuse the U.S. government of interceding on behalf of the State of Israel. The U.S. State Department said Monday that Alexandrovich did not claim diplomatic immunity and was released by a state judge pending a court date, the agency wrote on social media. Any claims that the U.S. government intervened are false.

If you believe that no deals were made I have a bridge to sell you. So much for the war on child sex offenders.

(7,030 posts)but a condition of that bail should have been a requirement that he stay in Nevada. He probably doesn't care about losing the $10k bail. Of course now that he has left the country, if he were to return, he should face re-arrest upon going thru customs.
Some sort of deal was likely made.
