U.S.A. Lawbreakers and Common Con Men

13 years ago
It is true that some foreigners have come to live in Ecuador in order to escape something. It may be Child support, or Debts, or Drug raps, Tax-evasion, or Wife-beating, or far worse crimes. Also, Ecuador does not have an extradition treaty. I know a man who did this many years ago to avoid paying Child-support in the states. However, he died here because he could never get an American Passport again. Once you have committed a crime in the states, you will not be given a renewal U.S. passport at any U.S. embassy in the world. Also, imo, the new visa requisite, a Criminal Check from where you are coming, is a very good thing. Recently a no. amer. 'malcriant' who came to a town, befriending everyone and cleaning them out, as well as indulging in other bad and illegal things. He looked respectable---like he worked in a U.S. Dept. Store! He 'conned' quite a few and now I believe he has been deported.
