Question

Crimes committed in this country by means of a computer often go unprosecuted because: Select one: a. The act is not a crime in that country, b. The U.S. Government has no jurisdiction to prosecute. c. The difficulty of proof of the intent to commit a crime. d. The country where the suspect is located has no computer crime law that allows extradition.

Answer 1

ANSWER: (D) The country where the suspect is located has no computer crime law that allows extradition

EXPLANATION: Crimes committed in the United States by means of a computer often go unprosecuted because there is absent of cooperative law enforcement between the United States and the country the suspect resides.

Moreover, cooperative law enforcement between the two countries will enable extradition (i.e an act in which a country delivers an individual accused or convicted of committing a crime in another country).
