Somali Pirate Weeps in Federal Court in New York City

Smiling Somali Pirate Weeps in Federal Court in New York City, Hearing Reopened to Public
Quote
The sole surviving Somali pirate from the hostage-taking of an American ship captain wept in federal court Tuesday as he faced the charges against him.

A federal judge determined that the suspect, Abdiwali Abdiqadir Muse, is an adult and reopened the New York City hearing to the public.

U.S. Magistrate Judge Andrew Peck had closed proceedings briefly to figure out whether Muse was a juvenile.

Muse cried in court as the charges of piracy — which carries a mandatory life sentence — and other counts against him were read. A day earlier, he'd been all smiles when he arrived in New York.

Crying in court is a good move, but when he cries on Oprah, that's when he will REALLY get the public's sympathy.

Yeah, I think it's a lesser known rule of the Pirate's Code as set forth by Morgan and Bartholomew and, as we see in the following clip, the code is the law....

His momma has already asked 0Bama to set him free.  How is he going to live that down at the local pirate's cove?

Hmm..

Long relatively pampered life in an American Prison Vs life in Somalia.

Does that still count as punishment ?

Why should this pirate not be hung from a yard arm and tossed to the sharks to serve as a warning to other pirates ?
