Those expelled were complicit/sympathetic in some way to the attack.

Probably something more like a SOFA.

They are not protected from criminal prosecution in most cases under the FMS program; I am surprised they aren't being prosecuted. With that said, I wonder if one of three things happened:

  1. Whatever warrant they had to search for these kids didn't include searching for whatever kind of files turned up the child porn or something like that.
  2. Some higher level diplomacy has been worked out.
3., and most likely, the Saudi students have exceptions to certain criminal prosecution - all the courses from DSCA generally teach: "this applies to everyone!!! Oh, except Saudis, they have a loophole to this that we won't address here."

I imagine the punishment they are gonna receive in Saudi would be worse than being prosecuted here.

Given what I know (from chatting with some peeps I know) about two specific cases locally that occurred several weeks before the shooting, I'd guess it's probably a combination of all three.
