UK police commissioner threatens to extradite, jail US citizens over online posts: ‘We’ll come after you’

“We will throw the full force of the law at people. And whether you’re in this country committing crimes on the streets or committing crimes from further afield online, we will come after you,” Metropolitan Police Commissioner Sir Mark Rowley told Sky News.
