I don't understand this BS - clearly knows what he was doing with money hidden into Swiss account, something he denied at first, and suddenly BAM - he's got Asperger's and (it follows for sure) he can't be extradited into mean US Federal jail where he might have to stay for the rest of his life.
For the record - I recently took questionnaire and got enough points to indicate I've got Asperger's, however should there every be a question of my extradition anywhere, then I vow to never claim it's a problem (there could be other problems like no guarantee of fair trial etc)
