A case for Chinese 'justice'

If there was ever a person that deserved the worst of Chinese 'justice', it is this guy:
A U.S. man accused of raping his daughter and putting the video on the Internet has been arrested in Hong Kong, U.S. authorities said on Wednesday.

Kenneth Freeman, 44, a former sheriff's deputy from Washington state, was on separate lists of most wanted fugitives kept by the U.S. Marshals Service and the Department of Homeland Security's Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency.

The video of Freeman and his young daughter was one of the most widely downloaded child pornography videos in recent years, U.S. law enforcement officials said.

The arrest, which took place on Tuesday, was based on a formal request by the U.S. State Department.

[...]

China and the United States do not have an extradition treaty but when the Chinese were informed about Freeman they agreed to help, the officials said.

Extradition? Why bother? Let's just ask the Chinese to handle it. I'm sure they could find a fitting sentence for this scumbag.
