Foreigners In Jail

Comment from a reader on "The Behaviour Of Americans Overseas":

Uh, "other countries such as the Philippines?" Would this include Japan, Taiwan, Singapore, etc?
A lot of Americans imprisoned in those places would be most interested in knowing they could have payed off the cops to avoid the rap. I think I agree with both the author and the SB response, but a little clarification is in order.

[The Subic Bulletin] The number of Asian citizens in US jails is a fraction of a percent according to the USDOJ http://www.ojp.usdoj.gov/bjs/prisons.htm, the numbers are therefore too insignificant to draw a conclusion on either side.
