Taxpayer’s Money To Be Wasted Bringing Pirate To NY

The captured Somali pirate who held a merchant ship captain hostage will be brought to New York to face trial, a U.S. official said Thursday.

The suspect, identified as Abduhl Wal-i-Musi, was taken aboard a U.S. Navy ship shortly before Navy SEAL snipers killed the three remaining pirates holding Capt. Richard Phillips hostage on a lifeboat launched from his cargo vessel, the Maersk Alabama.

The official said it was not immediately clear when Wal-i-Musi will be brought to New York. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to disclose information about an ongoing investigation.

Officials at the FBI office in New York did not immediately comment.

The government had been weighing whether to bring the suspect to trial in the United States or hand him over to authorities in Kenya, which has an international agreement to prosecute pirates.

Since the hostage standoff on the high seas ended Sunday, U.S. authorities have been examining details of the case, particularly Wal-i-Musi’s age.

Initially, he was thought to be between 16 years and 20 years of age, but Defense Secretary Robert Gates later said all four of the pirates involved were between ages 17 and 19.

If he is under 18, federal prosecutors must take a number of additional steps to justify charging him in federal court.

Though no charges have been publicly filed yet, the suspect could face charges that carry a maximum sentence of life in prison.

    And he will probably be much better off in jail in the states then he would at home.Except for the lack of khat.

      now we’re going to see a rise in piracy so they could live the dream of living like Somali kings in American prisons. :smile:

      I say he has a “mistake” and somehow “kills himself” that’s the best answer to piracy.

    Speaking of taxpayer money…is there anyone out there working on fundraising to help get our veterans to Victory in Iraq day on June 13th???

    This is madness; that Skinny turd should have been swinging from the yardarm after having rotted a bit in a sub-Saharan jail.

    The same vile pieces of excrement with bar cards will be tripping over themselves to defend this shit bag, as the have with all of the Gitmo creeps.

    They will belly ache & moan that he is but a young lad who had no choice, make no mistake about it that kid has been handling an AK since he was old enough to hold one.

    Unbelievable! The Somalis will probably use piracy to get into the USA now. Our prisons are nicer than their homes.

  5. RANGER

    The SEALS should have capped the piece of shit in the head like the other 3 pirates :gun: :gun: Then we woulden’t even have this problem :twisted: :twisted:

      roger that…… not a hard fucking decision….but for one who is looking out for his career, then it is…. what would YOU rather spend… .32cents on a fucking round to the skinnies head (problem solved) or a couple of million to bring him over then 500dollars a day to support his skinny ass in our fucking prison???? which equates to 180k dollars a year…for how many years???? FUCK THAT….this administration does not give a fuck because they are not footing the bill!

    This fuck will probably go to court charged as a minor.
    Sentenced to time served. Then his court appointed lawyer will claim his life will be endangered if he is sent back to Somalia. Then they will just let him stay in the U.S.

  7. The reason this guy didn’t shot was our navy seals are only aloud 3 bullets between them. :lol:

  8. T-Rony

    I thought crimes at sea were punished by:
    A:walking the plank
    B:hanging from the yard arm
    Give the asshat a cig and his choice.
    Price of a ciggarette:20 cents
    Price of rope: approx 1 US dollar a foot
    watching pirates hang:PRICELESS

    After a little time in juvie, he will end up getting instate tuition or a completely free education at taxpayer expense

  10. Ladies and Gentlemen there it is…
    The first order this Greenhorn Faux Leader has ever issued, that makes sense.
    Hussein has told Americas best and brightest they must Marandize those attempting to kill them on the battlefield.
    This order assures that death “while escaping” will be implicit, while encarcaration and hours of testimony are explicit. Guess which choice our best and brightest will choose?
    The One has instituted killing as the prefered option on the battlefield.
    That is humanity in this leftists eyes.
    Change You Can Believe In.
