Cos the world isn't perfect? the only reason I can think of would be to avoid a potential death penalty, but if innocent I'd rather gamble with that than spend the rest of my life banged up I think. |

to try to avoid the death penalty why would he even contenplate a plea bargin if innocent?
Cos the world isn't perfect? the only reason I can think of would be to avoid a potential death penalty, but if innocent I'd rather gamble with that than spend the rest of my life banged up I think. Think the only way the UK allows anyone to be deported to the USA on a murder charge is if they are guaranteed not to face the death penalty if convicted. Was definitely the case in this murder trial: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neil_Entwistle |

As I understand it, MBJ's appeal against extradition was on the basis that he could face the death penalty (and that it's unfair because 1 it is morally wrong and 2 we don't have that here). There was then a consent order signed and the appeal was dismissed without further ado.
The reports seem to suggest that the death penalty may still apply, but the consent order would indicate to me that the Home Office got their equivalents in the US to take it off. Why else agree to sign it?

69 when he comes out. Think I'd have stuck to the original story and gambled freedom against life without parole.

TBH it was the failed suicide attempt with a gun that made a non-believer out of me. |

The very last hand of the night goes to Dewi James, who finds ACES and talks Raymond O’Mahoney into calling his all-in preflop bet of 15k. “If I had AQ, I’d call!” says Dewi. Raymond calls holding pocket 66’s.
