Odd that carrying nail clippers on board can result in felony charges, but
killing your spouse and making a run for it is okay.

Why should the airline bear the cost of this?

Can you please provide a cite of someone getting charged with a felony
for carrying nail clippers, or where CO thought it was OK to kill a spouse?

They guy went through the "security" screening, so where was the danger
to the plane and/or passengers? The guy wasn't going anywhere. He was
detained in India.
