Can UK have him shipped home and prosecuted?

Its fucking insane, she was pissed off at his gun and Trump talk and he coaxed her into the bedroom to show her his gun and he killed her.

Not a lawyer, but I was under the impression you can’t prosecute someone for a crime that occurs in a different jurisdiction?

Though I have heard of so called sex vacation laws? But I never hear anyone prosecuted for those.

People get prosecuted for things out of jurisdiction all the time. There’s a few states right now trying to lock up doctors from other states.

It doesn’t usually work very well though.
