I think the law they broke is “conspiracy to commit murder, maim, or kidnap in a foreign country”. The conspiracy is the crime and the home country does have jurisdiction because the conspiracy is happening there and they have a law against conspiring to murder people in other countries.
Yep, I agree, but my opinion is that it is a reach. Conspiracy charges like these are brought against sex tourists once they have done the crime. “Against a minor” is specifically mentioned in the definition.
This is overreach of jurisdiction. It would be the same as coming after a person for planning to build a spaceship and attack an alien planet. The crime is required.
