1Opinion of the Court
WILLIAM A. FLETCHER, Circuit Judge.
Emmanuel Ormand Neil appeals his conviction for sexual contact with a minor in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 2244(a)(3) (1994). Neil is a citizen of St. Vincent and the Grenadines who was employed on a cruise ship departing from and returning to an American port. The victim, a 12-year-old girl, was a United States citizen, and the crime took place in Mexican territorial waters. Neil contends that the United States did not have extraterritorial jurisdiction over the crime. We disagree and affirm the judgment of the district court.
