He already got off compared to the other guys fate. He's going to get the best lawyers because they love the limelight. He's got a chance, a good chance of getting off.

Now that's pretty awesome.

Very kind of you scott. I'm curious to see which one of them win.

How can you think he has a good chance? He's already lost the first round by being tried as an adult. He may not see life but he's in Federal prison for a good amount of time. It's not like he can argue that he isn't guilty of piracy. At best he can say he was forced into it, but even then he's not going to find a lot of love.

He's being tried as an adult, because his father and brother both say he is 18 almost 19. His mother was more than likely going for sympathy by saying he was 16. Even tried as an adult, I still think there is a good chance he's getting off.

The first thing that will happen is that he'll get a job at Roche Bros. as a stock boy.

The second thing is that he'll say he is one of "the lost boys of Africa" who didn't walk across the continent. He chose to float his way here.

The third thing that will happen will be that Al Kuntsler, (or did he pass away), the pink attorney will represent him and he'll have him apply for citizenship.

The fourth thing that will happen is that his father will be proven right when he said the perp is 18 years of age, which will make the juvenile question moot.

The fifth thing, what MikeP says will happen, will happen, he'll go to club fed for a long time, and be place in the cell next to John (canoli) Connolly the crooked F.B.I. agent.

Now that is sweet. I want one.

Someone could make a fortune on that hat. I'd probably buy at least one.
