Why do you blame that user and not the US/Sweden?
Dying on that hill precisely on this case is absurd though.
There is a good chance the guy would have end up suicided. There is still a good chance he meets some questionable end. Fabricating charges of what is probably the worst crime with plausible deniability you can do is more than a possibility.
In this particular context, it's also very easy to abuse to frame someone, and attitudes like yours continue to show why.
