1. France
And the best country for American fugitives on our list is France. Why? Well, mainly because it is France, but also because the French consider both American judicial and prison systems to be grossly unfair and inhumane and they are very reluctant to send anyone their way. Besides Polanski, France also refused to extradite Michael and Linda Mastro, an American couple indicted for money laundering. Due to their advanced age and fragile health, the French would only agree to give them up if the US government promised not to send them to prison. Sounds like a great deal.
