Bribing someone also has to work on an interpersonal level, especially big things like this, the ones being bribed need to at least not really care.
Here I think they really don't like the rich, racist, arrogant,, anglo pimp who hangs out in "their" country to do human trafficking. So noone wants to help him.
"Don't shit where you eat" is a saying for a reason, but he is too alienated to realise that he lives in a society.
Also Romania wants to be viewed as less corrupt, so chances are if your arrest is this high profile there are going to be a lot of eyes on it, making people less likely to accept bribes.
the way I see it, arresting such a public asshole is too valuable of a :im-doing-my-part: against human trafficking to even bother with a bribe. It creates a real "yay the death start is destroyed" moment for everyone to clap and go back home to liberal business as usual.
Yep, in life as in fiction, the primary question most people ask when they see someone is "Who is this asshole and why should I care".
While most people and societies have developed answers of varying success, I can't even think of something Tate could do that would answer that question for me if he was asking me for a glass of water in a desert and I was Queen of all of Ceres.

This is mostly vibes based analysis though.
His face being all over the news (his fault) doesn't help his chances either. If he just walks people are going to ask questions and investigate.
Yeah, but if the right people had liked him there, the police wouldn't even have been at his door.

Aren’t they like, in the middle of trying to join the EU and need to put on a good face right now too?
They've joined, but aren't in the Schengen area yet.
But if they had liked him there, they would maybe have chosen some other bastard, it don't know how rare they are, but probably not very.
