Clueless human, but what stops a company from ignoring these laws from certain states? How is this enforceable if a company doesn't have any infrastructure within that state?

Now I am curious as well. Are there…extradition treaties between states?

The treaty in question is the Constitution. All states must grant extradition to any other state.

It would be pretty crazy if you could kill someone in Arizona and then just walk over the border to California and not be able to be prosecuted…

Exactly. We don't have a problem with too few laws and regulations. We have a problem with enforcement and accountability.

It seems like a problem of states trying to pass laws that control things outside their borders. The jurisdiction of Louisiana courts is Louisiana.

I mean it would be absurd if an anti-death-sentence state started trying to extradite the executioners working in pro-death-sentence states for murder, right?

If the executioner did their work in the anti-death-sentence state it wouldn't seem to be absurd, no. E. g. if they had pulled the cord that activated the electric chair remotely from a pro-death-sentence state (tele-execution ... sounds very BlackMirror).

I’d expect that to result in a very confusing court case. Fortunately, despite all the other messes going on, we haven’t tried anything that silly.
