UK Writer Graham Linehan Seeks U.S. Asylum After Heathrow Arrest Over Online Posts

Irish-born TV writer Graham Linehan says he will seek U.S. asylum after being arrested at Heathrow while returning to the U.K. to face charges tied to social-media posts. Allies including Rob Schneider and attorney Aaron Siri are reportedly exploring immigration options, though itâs unclear what status he could obtain. The case aligns with recent UK online-speech prosecutions that critics say could spur U.S. asylum bids.
