Wait, what?
You're prosecuted for doing something that (albeit sick) is not a crime where it took place?
Yep, and rightfully so IMO. Pretty sure it falls under the PROTECT Act of 2003 which was designed in part to stop "sex tourism."

Basically you cannot have sex with someone under the age of 18 while outside of the US or you risk prosecution once you return.

Authorizes fines and/or imprisonment for up to 30 years for U.S. citizens or residents who engage in illicit sexual conduct abroad. For the purposes of this law, illicit sexual conduct is defined as commercial sex with or sexual abuse of anyone under 18, or any sex with anyone under 16.
No prostitutes under the age of 18 and no sex at all with anyone under the age of 16.

Does that apply to all crimes, or just sex tourism?
