When someone has diplomatic immunity, it means they represent a foreign nation. Often politically. Usually an individual with diplomatic immunity shall be handled very carefully if involved in a crime. Most times they will be exempt from lesser criminal charges, as to avoid a crisis of diplomacy with the nation they represent. For major crimes, diplomatic immunity offers no protection on the other hand.
