That's nice, but it's only a list of "currently presented" charges, with none of the "potentially other" charges.
Keep in mind that federal felony charges involving the death penalty, like treason (¹), have no statute of limitations. He could easily get extradited, found either not guilty, or that the crimes have prescribed, or pardoned... then charged with treason and executed.
(¹: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treason_laws_in_the_United_States )
Treason is a crime you can only commit against your own country. The US can't accuse a non-US citizen of treason...
