Might be time to change locations. At least make them do their job. Take a boat ride to Haiti
Seriously, I'm wondering about this. What if you were convicted of a serious charge and you had an option of fleeing the country to an island nation like Haiti or Cuba or Jamaica (not necessarily has to be the Caribbean, just seem like those countries are the easiest to flee too) before sentencing? Is it possible? What about the logistics? Anything else?
