Personally I care what happens in this case. I care because I see letting those with money, power and influence get off easy (or, at times, completely) as a disgrace to the system, a disgrace to justice itself. I'm not interested in cutting his nuts off or having him "fry" for his actions. I want him sentenced based on the sentencing guides from when he plead guilty and charged for flight and sentenced accordingly. Nothing more, nothing less.

Do I think any of that's going to happen? No. I think he'll be back finishing post production on his latest film within a few months, possibly weeks. I hope I'm wrong.
