  • How did a billionaire sheik secretly divorce his supermodel wife, marry someone else, and then try to get out of paying millions in alimony? He went to the offshore, of course, and he used the most expensive lifeboat there is: diplomatic immunity.
    On this episode of OFFSHORE, it's the scintillating tale of a suspicious St. Lucian seaman, a million dollar wardrobe, a knighthood from the Pope, and the most expensive divorce settlement in British history.

    diplomatic immunity is really neat, i had it for about 9 years (until the age of 21 for children of embassy workers) since my dad worked in the foreign ministry, we didn't get searched at airports, we had our own line at airport checks, etc. you also can't get arrested but if the police informs the embassy of your crime they'll definitely get mad and might take you back home for "damaging the reputation of saudi in that country", and our government is really obsessed with its reputation (in their view; good reputation = more tourists = more money).
    there were incidents of people committing crimes such as murder or robbery and when they got back home the judge(s) would dismiss it to show that they stand with their citizens.

    Diplomat imunity only applys under certain conditions. 1 your working for a country. 2 your allowed into a country that your doing Diplomat things for. While working for you have immunity traveling somewhere else you do not. Meaning you actually have to have ties to both country's for immunity to apply. So if someone sends a messenger to another country's leader your not supposed to kill them. That's the whole idea.
